Letters of Credit - Guaranteeing payment for goods exported overseas

A Letter of Credit guarantees payment for goods exported overseas, provided you meet all of its conditions. When you export your product or service overseas, your buyer’s bank will open a Letter of Credit. This will contain details of the strict terms and conditions you need to adhere to in order for the bank to release payment. If your company meets all of the stated conditions, payment is guaranteed.
