Dear All,

Could you please elaborate in the context of rules and regulations of Bangladesh whether opening of local LC (not local back to back LC) in foreign currency is permissible.

Look forward to hearing.

Regards.........Mehdi

1. I don't find any problem in opening of local LC in FC of which payment is in Local Currency except BTB LC.
2. If we can open as well as settle an LC in FC in case of Foreign LC, there should not have any problem in doing that in case of Local LC.

More explanation is appreciable.
