Dear experts,

A beneficiary of a L/C presents documents to the confirming bank on 15FebXX
The confirming bank founs that the presentation does not comply on 17FebXX
The beneficiary represents the document on 18FebXX

My query: What is the lates date by which the confirming bank has to determine if the presentation is complying?
20FebXX or 23FebXX

Nb: the expiry date of the L/C is 28Feb

Regards

Hi Pal,

Hi Picant,

Which article should we refer to?
If the beneficiary correct the discrepant document and re-presents it, should we consider such presentation as a second presentation, so the conforming bank has to determine if the presentation is complying within 5 banking days followin the day of the second presentation?

in my opinion, within 5 days of first presentation, the represenation will not extend the 5 banking days as per UCP
