QUESTION

Dear Mr. Old Man,

Field 46A: Signed commercial invoice in 3 originals and 3 copies.
Field 47A: All documents must be manually signed.

I want to know whether copies of invoice must be signed manually.

Thank you in advance for your advice.

Best regards,

ANSWER

Hi,

My quick answer is NO.

According to ISBP 745 A31 (b), copies of documents need not be signed or dated. So, copies of the invoice in question need not be signed.

If the issuing bank intends to require all documents including copies to be manually signed, such requirement must be expressly stated in the LC as follows “All documents including copies must be manually signed” or similar wording.

Kind regards,

Mr. Old Man
