International Standard Banking Practice (ISBP)
For the Examination of Documents under Documentary Credits
ICC No. 681 eBook
2007 Edition
84 pages
This Publication, an update of the successful ICC publication 645, reflects international standard banking practice for all parties to a documentary credit under UCP 600.
Figures show that more than 50% of credits are rejected for discrepancies on first presentation. The new ISBP, by encouraging a uniformity of practice worldwide, should reduce that figure dramatically and, by doing so, facilitate the flow of world trade.
The 2003 publication International Standard Banking Practice (ISBP) for the examination of documents under documentary credits (ICC Publication 645) was widely acclaimed by practitioners as an essential companion to UCP 500. This revised version of the ISBP brings it into line with UCP 600.
ISBP was conceived as an intelligent checklist of procedures for document checkers to follow in examining the documents presented under letters of credit. While not a substitute for the UCP, which remains the guiding text, the ISBP demonstrates how the UCP is to be integrated into day-to-day practice.
In this volume, users will find guidance on how to deal with documents covering at least two different modes of transport (UCP 600 article 19): insurance documents and coverage (UCP600 article 28): transferable credits (UCP600 article 38) and a broad range of other issues covered in the new documentary credit rules.
