Frequently asked — Safi

How does a Letter of Credit work?
A Letter of Credit (LC) is a bank' written undertaking to pay the Indian exporter a specified amount upon presentation of complying shipping documents within a stipulated time. Process: (1) EU buyer instructs their bank (issuing bank) to open an LC, (2) LC is transmitted via SWIFT MT700 to an Indian advising bank, (3) Indian exporter ships goods and presents documents to the advising/negotiating bank, (4) if documents comply, the bank pays the exporter. The LC is the most secure payment method for India-EU trade.
What is the role of SWIFT in India-EU trade payments?
SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication) is the global messaging network banks use for international payment instructions and LC communications. Key SWIFT messages in India-EU trade: MT700 (LC issuance), MT710 (LC advice by bank), MT103 (international wire transfer), MT202 (bank-to-bank transfer). All India-EU international payments are routed through SWIFT.
What is a multimodal Bill of Lading?
A Multimodal (or Combined Transport) Bill of Lading is issued when goods travel under a single contract covering more than one mode of transport — e.g., road from factory to Indian port, then sea to Rotterdam, then road to German buyer. The multimodal transport operator (MTO) issues a FIATA Multimodal Transport B/L (FBL) covering the entire journey under a single document. Useful for door-to-door India-EU shipments.
