Here is what typically happens when payment is made by an irrevocable letter of credit confirmed by a U.S. bank. Follow the steps in the illustration below:
Exporter and customer agree on terms of sale.
Buyer requests its foreign bank to open a letter of credit.
The buyer’s bank prepares an irrevocable letter of credit (LC), including all instructions, and sends the irrevocable letter of credit to a U.S. bank.
The U.S bank prepares a letter of confirmation and letter of credit and sends to seller.
Seller reviews LC. If acceptable, arranges with freight forwarder to deliver goods to designated port of entry.
The goods are loaded and shipped.
At the same time the forwarder completes the necessary documents and sends documents to the seller.
Seller presents documents, indicating full compliance, to the U.S. bank.
The U.S. bank reviews the documents. If they are in order, issues seller a check for amount of sale.
The documents are airmailed to the buyer's bank for review.
If documents are in compliance, the bank sends documents to buyer.
To claim goods, buyer presents documents to customs broker.
Goods are released to buyer.
