Will the receipt of a documentary bill for collection impact on my banking facilities?

No. The banks involved in the collection process do not make any guarantee for payment, and, therefore, there is no requirement to mark the collection against your banking facility. If your bank is requested to 'avalise' the bill of exchange, then the amount of the bill will be marked against your facility.

Close

How do I ascertain whether a documentary collection is the correct payment method to utilise for my import?

Usually, the payment method is agreed upon with the seller at the time of negotiation of the sales contract. The seller will request payment via a documentary collection.

Close

What is the Uniform Rules for Collections?

It is hard to imagine dealing with collections without the security of international uniformity. The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) is an international body that has defined worldwide standards for the operation of documentary collections.

These standards are embodied in the 'Uniform Rules for Collections', commonly referred to as the URC 522. The URC 522 is not a force of law, but a set of rules and regulations that are binding on the parties who subscribe to it.

Close

Why you need this

Making use of Documentary Collections will ensure your peace of mind.

As an exporter you retain ownership of goods until either payment or acceptance is received...plus

  • Accepted bills can be used to obtain financing
  • The handling of export collections is governed by the ICC Uniform Rules for Collections
  • The bank acts for the exporter, by presenting commercial documents to the buyer (importer) along with a payment demand or bill of exchange
  • Settlement is normally faster than using the Open Account method
  • Documents against acceptance (D/A) - documents are released to the buyer against acceptance to pay at a future date
  • Documents against payment (D/P) - documents are released to the buyer against payment
  • Unless the buyer pays or commits to pay at a future date, no documents will be handed over

Documentary collections

Foreign bills for collection

A Documentary Collection is the collection, through a bank, of monies owed by a buyer, against delivery of certain documents.

Why you need this

Business peace of mind

Making use of Documentary Collections will ensure your peace of mind.

How it works

Convenience at your hands

Shipping of goods

The seller ships the goods to the buyer



Document handover

The seller hands the documents to his/her bank (the Remitting Bank) with instructions to release the documents against acceptance/ payment of a bill of exchange



Forwarding of documents

The Remitting Bank forwards the documents to the Collecting / Presenting Bank in the Buyer's country.



Release of documents

The Collecting Bank releases documents to the Buyer as per instructions received from the Remitting Bank
