　　第四条 信用证与合同

　　a.A credit by its nature is a separate transaction from the sale or other contract on which it may be based.Banks are in no way concerned with or bound by such contract，even if any reference whatsoever to it is included in the credit.Consequently，the undertaking of a bank to honour，to negotiate or to fulfil any other obligation under the credit is not subject to claims or defences by the applicant resulting from its relationships with the issuing bank or the beneficiary。

　　A beneficiary can in no case avail itself of the contractual relationships existing between banks or between the applicant and the issuing bank。

　　a.就性质而言，信用证与可能作为其依据的销售合同或其它合同，是相互独立的交易。即使信用证中提及该合同，银行亦与该合同完全无关，且不受其约束。因此，一家银行作出兑付、议付或履行信用证项下其它义务的承诺，并不受申请人与开证行之间或与受益人之间在已有关系下产生的索偿或抗辩的制约。

　　受益人在任何情况下，不得利用银行之间或申请人与开证行之间的契约关系。

　　b.An issuing bank should discourage any attempt by the applicant to include，as an integral part of the credit，copies of the underlying contract，proforma invoice and the like。

　　Article 5 Documents v.Goods，Services or Performance

　　c.A credit must not be issued available by a draft drawn on the applicant。

　　d.i 信用证必须规定提示单据的有效期限。规定的用于兑付或者议付的有效期限将被认为是提示单据的有效期限。

　　ii.可以有效使用信用证的银行所在的地点是提示单据的地点。对任何银行均为有效的信用证项下单据提示的地点是任何银行所在的地点。不同于开证行地点的提示单据的地点是开证行地点之外提交单据的地点。

　　e.Except as provided in sub-article 29 (a)，a presentation by or on behalf of the beneficiary must be made on or before the expiry date。

　　Article 7 Issuing Bank Undertaking

　　第七条 开证行的承诺

　　a.Provided that the stipulated documents are presented to the nominated bank or to the issuing bank and that they constitute a complying presentation，the issuing bank must honour if the credit is available by：

　　Article 8 Confirming Bank Undertaking

　　第八条 保兑行的承诺

　　a.Provided that the stipulated documents are presented to the confirming bank or to any other nominated bank and that they constitute a complying presentation，the confirming bank must：

　　c.保兑行保证向对于相符提示已经予以兑付或者议付并将单据寄往开证行的另一家被指定银行进行偿付。无论另一家被指定银行是否于到期日前已经对相符提示予以预付或者购买，对于承兑或延期付款信用证项下相符提示的金额的偿付于到期日进行。保兑行偿付另一家被指定银行的承诺独立于保兑行对于受益人的承诺。

　　d.If a bank is authorized or requested by the issuing bank to confirm a credit but is not prepared to do so，it must inform the issuing bank without delay and may advise the credit without confirmation。

　　第九条 信用证及修改的通知

　　a.A credit and any amendment may be advised to a beneficiary through an advising bank.An advising bank that is not a confirming bank advises the credit and any amendment without any undertaking to honour or negotiate.a.信用证及其修改可以通过通知行通知受益人。除非已对信用证加具保兑，通知行通知信用证不构成兑付或议付的承诺。

　　b.By advising the credit or amendment，the advising bank signifies that it has satisfied itself as to the apparent authenticity of the credit or amendment and that the advice accurately reflects the terms and conditions of the credit or amendment received。

　　b.通过通知信用证或修改，通知行即表明其认为信用证或修改的表面真实性得到满足，且通知准确地反映了所收到的信用证或修改的条款及条件。

　　c.An advising bank may utilize the services of another bank (“second advising bank”)to advise the credit and any amendment to the beneficiary.By advising the credit or amendment，the second advising bank signifies that it has satisfied itself as to the apparent authenticity of the advice it has received and that the advice accurately reflects the terms and conditions of the credit or amendment received。

　　c.通知行可以利用另一家银行的服务(“第二通知行”)向受益人通知信用证及其修改。通过通知信用证或修改，第二通知行即表明其认为所收到的通知的表面真实性得到满足，且通知准确地反映了所收到的信用证或修改的条款及条件。

　　d.A bank utilizing the services of an advising bank or second advising bank to advise a credit must use the same bank to advise any amendment thereto。

　　e.If a bank is requested to advise a credit or amendment but elects not to do so，it must so inform，without delay，the bank from which the credit，amendment or advice has been received。

　　e.假如一家银行被要求通知信用证或修改但决定不予通知，它必须不延误通知向其发送信用证、修改或通知的银行。

　　f.If a bank is requested to advise a credit or amendment but cannot satisfy itself as to the apparent authenticity of the credit，the amendment or the advice，it must so inform，without delay，the bank from which the instructions appear to have been received.If the advising bank or second advising bank elects nonetheless to advise the credit or amendment，it must inform the beneficiary or second advising bank that it has not been able to satisfy itself as to the apparent authenticity of the credit，the amendment or the advice。

　　Article 10 Amendments

　　第十条 修改

　　a.Except as otherwise provided by article 38，a credit can neither be amended nor cancelled without the agreement of the issuing bank，the confirming bank，if any，and the beneficiary。

　　a.除本惯例第38条另有规定外，凡未经开证行、保兑行(如有)以及受益人同意，信用证既不能修改也不能撤销。

　　b.An issuing bank is irrevocably bound by an amendment as of the time it issues the amendment.A confirming bank may extend its confirmation to an amendment and will be irrevocably bound as of the time it advises the amendment.A confirming bank may，however，choose to advise an amendment without extending its confirmation and，if so，it must inform the issuing bank without delay and inform the beneficiary in its advice。

　　b.自发出信用证修改书之时起，开证行就不可撤销地受其发出修改的约束。保兑行可将其保兑承诺扩展至修改内容，且自其通知该修改之时起，即不可撤销地受到该修改的约束。然而，保兑行可选择仅将修改通知受益人而不对其加具保兑，但必须不延误地将此情况通知开证行和受益人。

　　c.The terms and conditions of the original credit (or a credit incorporating previously accepted amendments)will remain in force for the beneficiary until the beneficiary communicates its acceptance of the amendment to the bank that advised such amendment.The beneficiary should give notification of acceptance or rejection of an amendment.If the beneficiary fails to give such notification，a presentation that complies with the credit and to any not yet accepted amendment will be deemed to be notification of acceptance by the beneficiary of such amendment.As of that moment the credit will be amended。

　　c.在受益人向通知修改的银行表示接受该修改内容之前，原信用证(或包含先前已被接受修改的信用证)的条款和条件对受益人仍然有效。受益人应发出接受或拒绝接受修改的通知。如受益人未提供上述通知，当其提交至被指定银行或开证行的单据与信用证以及尚未表示接受的修改的要求一致时，则该事实即视为受益人已作出接受修改的通知，并从此时起，该信用证已被修改。

　　d.A bank that advises an amendment should inform the bank from which it received the amendment of any notification of acceptance or rejection。

　　d.通知修改的银行应当通知向其发出修改书的银行任何有关接受或拒绝接受修改的通知。

　　e.Partial acceptance of an amendment is not allowed and will be deemed to be notification of rejection of the amendment。

　　e.不答应部分接受修改，部分接受修改将被视为拒绝接受修改的通知。

　　f.A provision in an amendment to the effect that the amendment shall enter into force unless rejected by the beneficiary within a certain time shall be disregarded。

　　Article 11 Teletransmitted and Pre-Advised Credits and Amendments

　　第十一条 电讯传递与预先通知的信用证和修改

　　a.An authenticated teletransmission of a credit or amendment will be deemed to be the operative credit or amendment，and any subsequent mail confirmation shall be disregarded。

　　If a teletransmission states “full details to follow”(or words of similar effect)，or states that the mail confirmation is to be the operative credit or amendment，then the teletransmission will not be deemed to be the operative credit or amendment.The issuing bank must then issue the operative credit or amendment without delay in terms not inconsistent with the teletransmission。

　　a.经证实的信用证或修改的电讯文件将被视为有效的信用证或修改，任何随后的邮寄证实书将被不予置理。

　　若该电讯文件声明”详情后告”(或类似词语)或声明随后寄出的邮寄证实书将是有效的信用证或修改，则该电讯文件将被视为无效的信用证或修改。开证行必须随即不延误地开出有效的信用证或修改，且条款不能与与电讯文件相矛盾。

　　b.A preliminary advice of the issuance of a credit or amendment (“pre-advice”)shall only be sent if the issuing bank is prepared to issue the operative credit or amendment.An issuing bank that sends a pre-advice is irrevocably committed to issue the operative credit or amendment，without delay，in terms not inconsistent with the pre-advice。

　　Article 12 Nomination

　　第十二条 指定

　　a.Unless a nominated bank is the confirming bank，an authorization to honour or negotiate does not impose any obligation on that nominated bank to honour or negotiate，except when expressly agreed to by that nominated bank and so communicated to the beneficiary。

　　a.除非一家被指定银行是保兑行，对被指定银行进行兑付或议付的授权并不构成其必须兑付或议付的义务，被指定银行明确同意并照此通知受益人的情形除外。

　　b.By nominating a bank to accept a draft or incur a deferred payment undertaking，an issuing bank authorizes that nominated bank to prepay or purchase a draft accepted or a deferred payment undertaking incurred by that nominated bank。

　　b.通过指定一家银行承兑汇票或承担延期付款承诺，开证行即授权该被指定银行预付或购买经其承兑的汇票或由其承担延期付款的承诺。

　　c.Receipt or examination and forwarding of documents by a nominated bank that is not a confirming bank does not make that nominated bank liable to honour or negotiate，nor does it constitute honour or negotiation。

　　第十三条 银行间偿付约定

　　a.If a credit states that reimbursement is to be obtained by a nominated bank (”claiming bank”)claiming on another party (”reimbursing bank”)，the credit must state if the reimbursement is subject to the ICC rules for bank-to-bank reimbursements in effect on the date of issuance of the credit。

　　a.假如信用证规定被指定银行(“索偿行”)须通过向另一方银行(“偿付行”)索偿获得偿付，则信用证中必须声明是否按照信用证开立日正在生效的国际商会《银行间偿付规则》办理。

　　b.If a credit does not state that reimbursement is subject to the ICC rules for bank-to-bank reimbursements，the following apply：

　　b.假如信用证中未声明是否按照国际商会《银行间偿付规则》办理，则适用于下列条款：

　　i.An issuing bank must provide a reimbursing bank with a reimbursement authorization that conforms with the availability stated in the credit.The reimbursement authorization should not be subject to an expiry date。

　　i.开证行必须向偿付行提供偿付授权书，该授权书须与信用证中声明的有效性一致。偿付授权书不应规定有效日期。

　　ii.A claiming bank shall not be required to supply a reimbursing bank with a certificate of compliance with the terms and conditions of the credit。

　　ii.不应要求索偿行向偿付行提供证实单据与信用证条款及条件相符的证实。

　　iii.An issuing bank will be responsible for any loss of interest，together with any expenses incurred，if reimbursement is not provided on first demand by a reimbursing bank in accordance with the terms and conditions of the credit。

　　iii.假如偿付行未能按照信用证的条款及条件在首次索偿时即行偿付，则开证行应对索偿行的利息损失以及产生的费用负责。

　　iv.A reimbursing bank's charges are for the account of the issuing bank.However，if the charges are for the account of the beneficiary，it is the responsibility of an issuing bank to so indicate in the credit and in the reimbursement authorization.If a reimbursing bank's charges are for the account of the beneficiary，they shall be deducted from the amount due to a claiming bank when reimbursement is made.If no reimbursement is made，the reimbursing bank's charges remain the obligation of the issuing bank。

　　iv.偿付行的费用应由开证行承担。然而，假如费用系由受益人承担，则开证行有责任在信用证和偿付授权书中予以注明。如偿付行的费用系由受益人承担，则该费用应在偿付时从支付索偿行的金额中扣除。假如未发生偿付，开证行仍有义务承担偿付行的费用。

　　c.An issuing bank is not relieved of any of its obligations to provide reimbursement if reimbursement is not made by a reimbursing bank on first demand。

　　b.按照指定行事的被指定银行、保兑行(如有)以及开证行，自其收到提示单据的翌日起算，应各自拥有最多不超过五个银行工作日的时间以决定提示是否相符。该期限不因单据提示日适逢信用证有效期或最迟提示期或在其之后而被缩减或受到其它影响。

　　f.假如信用证要求提示运输单据、保险单据和商业发票以外的单据，但未规定该单据由何人出具或单据的内容。如信用证对此未做规定，只要所提交单据的内容看来满足其功能需要且其它方面与十四条(d)款相符，银行将对提示的单据予以接受。
