Yours根据合同条款审证并起草改证函【要点归纳】本类型试题涉及两个方面：一是通过审证找出应该修改之处；二是写一封英文信函提出具体改证要求。在外贸实际业务中，当外销员收到外商寄来的信用证时，应对照销售合同严格审查信用证的各项条款。（一） 审证审证应熟练掌握以下十个方面的要领：1、信用证的种类必须与合同规定一致。如合同规定用保兑的不可撤销的跟单信用证付款(Confirmed, irrevocable documentary credit)，则信用证应正确明示

13、。但应注意：UPS500（以下简称“惯例”）规定如果信用证未注明时可撤销的(revocable)，则视为不可撤销的。2、信用证的开证人和受益人(beneficiary)不能颠倒，不能错写为某个第三方；双方的名字应与合同完全一致；开证人一般为进口人，受益人一般为出口人。3、信用证中引述的合同号必须正确。4、信用证的金额绝对不能低于合同金额（注：信用证金额允许超过合同金额）；所用货币种类、金额大小写应与合同一致；如货物数量有5%溢短装的规定，则信用证金额也须注明 “5% more or less”。5、信用证所规定的即期付款或远期付款须与合同规定一致。若是远期付款，还应注意付款的具体期限是否一致。

14、6、信用证的装运期和有效期既要符合合同要求，又要注意两个日期的合理关系，信用证有效期一般应比装运期晚15天，这样才能保证装运后安全结汇。此外，还应特别注意信用证的到期起点，若规定在受益人所在国境外到期则不能接受，因为受益人难以确定单据寄到境外银行的时间。7、信用证所列货物的品名、规格、数量、单价、总值，以及佣金和折扣的规定等均须符合合同规定。8、审核运输条款与合同是否一致，是否合理。具体应注意以下三个方面：（1）装运港和目的港必须符合合同要求（但若信用证规定的港口范围大于合同要求，等于给了受益人更大选择余地，则不必修改，例如：合同规定的装运港/目的港分别是Shanghai和London，而信用

15、证规定为China Port 和European main port，则完全可以接受）；目的港在信用证中可能出现两次（一次是在运输条款中出现，另一次是在价格条款中出现），审证时应注意两者的一致。（2）注意分批装运和转船规定应符合合同要求，还应注意分批批数和转船地点、次数有无特别要求。（注：根据“惯例”规定，信用证若对分批和转运无明确要求，则视为允许。）（3）注意包装要求和唛头应与合同保持一致。9、信用证中规定的价格条款必须与合同要求一致（若信用证中漏掉该项条款，则须要求开证人补上）。10、投保险别和金额必须符合合同规定。具体应注意以下三个方面：（1）如信用证要求合同条款外的险别且不明确说明额外

16、保费由开证人负担，则应要求其修改；（2）一般合同均规定投保金额为 “110% of Invoice value”，如超出此金额，信用证又未明确额外保费由开证人负担，也应修改；（3）如价格条件是FOB或CFR，信用证则不能要求受益人投保或提供保险单据。（二） 改证改证信函的正文一般包括三个层次的内容：1、说明收到了信用证并表示经审核发现有不符要求之处（最基本的要求是说明信用证号码）；2、信用证具体要修改的内容（最为重要）；3、信函的结尾（表达要求尽快修改的意愿即可）。改证函常用套语：1、 开头语：Thank you for your L/C Noagainst Contract NoWe are

17、 glad to inform you that we have received your L/C Noagainst our S/C NoYour L/C Nohas been received with thanks.2、“经审查，发现”：On examination, we find thatOn going through the clauses, we find with regret that3、常见改证内容及表达：Please amend the L/C to readPlease amend the L/C allowing transshipment and partial

Yours truly英文合同基本内容简介【注意事项】合同作为具有法律约束力的文件，在实际业务中十分重要。填制外销合同是出口业务中一项非常关键的工作，既要将所有买卖双方经过反复谈判达成的条款填写完整，又要求语言正确、准确、符合规范。为此，应注意以下两个问题：（一） 必须完全看懂合同，正

22、确理解买卖双方的往来函电内容。在此基础上，还应特别留意在“讨价还价”过程中一些交易条件的变更及最后的确认；此外，有些条件买卖双方若未明示，则按惯例办理，如：唛头(Shipping Mark)，双方如未明确说明则可写为 “At Sellers Option”（由卖方选定）；保险(Insurance)，如按惯例办理则是指“按发票金额的110%投保”(for 110% of the invoice value)。（二） 必须熟悉买卖合同的基本内容，熟记合同主要条款的英文名称及英文表达。现将合同的12项基本内容及其英文表达简介如下：1、买卖双方的名称和地址(Sellers / Buyers)相关信息可

23、在成交凭证的往来英文函电中找到，如：（1）信函的“信头”、“落款”均指写信人；（2）“封内地址”是指收信人；（3）Outgoing / Incoming分别表示“发出”与“收进”的信函。2、商品名称(Commodity)如有牌号，则需填写，且要大写。3、商品规格(Specifications)商品规格实际上是反映商品品质的，不同商品有不同规格，其表达方式也各不相同。如：（1）型号：Type / Model No.（2）货号：Art. No.（3）尺寸大小、色彩搭配：2040yards / yellow and white equally assorted（4）包装规格：in cans of 2

24、50 grams（5）质量符合样品规格：Quality as per sample No4、数量(Quantity)注意计量单位的表示，如：piece / pcs（件），set（套，台），yard / yds.（码），metric ton / M/T（公吨），case/ c/s（箱），carton（纸板箱），dozen / dz.（打）等。5、单价(Unit Price)一般用 “Atper”的表达方式。按照国际贸易惯例，单价应包含价格术语在内。完整的单价由四部分构成，缺一不可：（1）货币名称及单位；（2）金额；（3）计价数量单位；（4）贸易术语。例如：USD 100.00 per carto

25、n CIF Vancouver / at ￥ 47.50 per dozen CFR Shanghai6、总值(Total Value)一般要求给出大小写两种写法，即先用数字后用文字在括号中表示。用文字填写时应注意第一个词用 “SAY”，最后用 “ONLY”结尾。例如：CAD 30,000 (SAY CANADIAN DOLLARS THIRTY THOUSAND ONLY)7、包装(Packing)根据繁简不同的要求，一般分为三种情况表达：（1）“用包装”(in)（2）“用装，每件装多少”(in, each containing/ inofeach)（3）“用装，每件装多少，若干件装一大件”

26、(inofeach, to)8、唛头(Shipping Mark)一般由买卖双方选定，可用 “At Buyers Option” / “At Sellers Option”表达；若未作明确说明，则按 “At Sellers Option”填写。9、保险(Insurance)应熟悉表现业务中常见的三个基本险和常见的附加险。若函电中对该条款未予明示，则按惯例处理，即： “To be covered by the Sellers (or Buyers) for 110% of the invoice value against All Risks and War Risk as per”（由买/卖方根据条例，按发票金额的110%投保一切险和战争险）；在以FOB / CFR 术语成交时，应由买方自行投保，此时可简单写为： “To be effected by the Buyers”。10、装期(Time of Shipment)装期一般只用“某年某月”，按英文习惯，先写月、后写年，介词用in/during。此外，若是分批装
