第37讲：改证函（一） 讲义

信用证修改的原因

信用证修改的原因

从要求修改者的角度划分，信用证修改通常在以下几种情况发生： 1出口方(受益人)要求修改信用证。 1)由于信用证内容与合同不符。

2)信用证中某些条款受益人无法办到。 3)货源或船期等出现问题，要求展期。 2进口方(开证申请人)要求展期。 1)由于市场或销售情况发生变化。

2)进口国某些情况发生变化，使信用证必须修改，才能进口有关货物。 3)国际政治、经济形势变化，使进出口风险增加。

3开证行工作疏漏，在打字或传递上造成的错误使信用证必须更正。 改证函的写作步骤

一份规范的改证函主要包括三方面内容： 1感谢对方开来信用证。

2列明不符点并说明如何修改。

3感谢对方合作，并希望信用证修改书早日开到。 常用句型
