Import documentary collection

Peace of mind when importing

Essentials

 

 

Complete documentary collection process monitored

  • Documentary evidence that the goods have been shipped by the seller may be presented.
  • When we receive the documents from the seller, we’ll contact you.  The documents will then be released to you when the seller’s terms and conditions are met.
  • You may elect not to accept or pay the collection
  • Issued on a 'sight' or 'term' basis: sight means that drafts are drawn for immediate payment, term means that drafts are drawn on a term payment basis - e.g. 30 days after sight, 90 days from bill of lading
  • A safer alternative to prepayments
  • A cost effective payment method as compared to a documentary letter of credit.
