断了好些时间没有整理邮件了，今天继续。

今天要分享的是有关信用证内容。信用证在国际贸易中是最常见的支付方式。

信用证的流程一般是：

1.进口方通知开证行开立以出口方为受益人（beneficiary）的信用证。

2.信用证开出后由开证行将信用证寄给出口方所在地的通知行（notifying bank)

3.接到信用证后，出口方和银行会对信用证进行核实。核实没问题了就可以出货了。

4.出货后，出口方就可以缮制符合信用证要求的单据，在根据此向议付行（negotiation bank）交单议付，取得货款。

有时候进口方由于种种原因，未能及时开立信用证，这是出口方就要催进口方迅速办理。下面介绍催证邮件的写作步骤：

1.提醒买方我方货物已备妥，交期已临近，但尚未收到相关信用证。

In regard to 25000 yards of cotton prints under the Sales Confirmation No.789, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that the date of delivery is approaching , but up to now we have not received your relative latter of credit .我们提醒贵方注意，789号售货确认书项下25000码印花布的交期已经临近，但是我方至今尚未收到相关信用证。

2.向对方说明需及时开立信用证的原因或重要性。

We wish to remind you that it was agreed when placing the order, that you would establish the required L/C upon receipt of our Confirmation .我方提醒贵方注意，订货时双方约定，一接到我方确认书，贵方就开立信用证。

3.请对方尽快开证。

As the goods have been ready for shipment for quite some time ,it behooves you to take immediate action ,particularly since we cannot think of amy valid reason for further delaying the opening of the credit .货已备妥多日，贵方应立即开证，我们不知贵方有何理由迟迟不开证。

更改信用证等常见表达

1.告诉对方已收到信用证。

we wish to acknowledge receipt of the L/C No.3450 for the amount of USD 5000 covering your order No.987.贵方987号订单项下金额5000美元的 3450 号信用证已收到 。

2.指出信用证玉合同不符而需修改的地方（说明需要延期的原因）

We find that the following two points do not conform to the contract. 我方认为条款中有下列两点与合同不符。

In connection with shipment ,we are very sorry to advise that the goods cannot be ready before the end of May ,because of delay of our manufactures .关于装运问题，我方深表歉意，由于厂商的延误，该货无法在5月底前备妥。

3.希望对方给予合作。

Your prompt attention to the matter will be much appreciated . 请尽快办理，不胜感激。

We are confident that you will give us cooperation by extending the shipment date to June 10, and the negotiation validity to June 25 ,2005 respectively.相信贵方会予以合 作，将装运期和议付期分别延期到2005年6月10日和6月25日。
