I have been following this nice forum for 2 years. This is my first question.

I made an export with l/c. The goods description is <p>"cable 20x0.20 "</p>at the invoice and at the bill of lading it is <p> "cable 20x020".<p>

The bank regards it an inconsistency.

It it possible to refuse the documents on such small differences.?

I understand that according to the UCP 600 I dont have to declare the goods on the bill of lading in details.

Mispelling

Hi Friend,

if the difference is just a "comma" 020 i/o 0,20 it may be considered a simple misspelling and documents must be accepted,

specially if the mistake appears on transport document.

Please contact issuing bank!

Ciao
