信用证开证申请书

信用证开证申请书的概念

进口方与出口方签订国际贸易货物进出口合同并确认以信用证为结算方式后,即由进口方向有关银行申请开立信用证。开证申请是整个进口信用证处理实务的第一个环节,进口方应根据合同规定的时间或在规定的装船前一定时间内申请开证,并填制开证申请书,开证行根据有关规定收取开证押金和开证费用后开出信用证。

开证申请人(进口方)在向开证行申请开证时必须填制开证申请书。开证申请书是开证申请人对开证行的付款指示,也是开证申请人与开证行之间的一种书面契约,它规定了开证申请人与开证行的责任。在这一契约中,开证行只是开证申请人的付款代理人。

开证申请书主要依据贸易合同中的有关主要条款填制,申请人填制后附合同副本一并提交银行,供银行参考、核对。但信用证一经开立则独立于合同,因而在填写开证申请时应审慎查核合同的主要条款,并将其列入申请书中。

一般情况下,开证申请书都由开证银行事先印就,以便申请人直接填制。开证申请书通常为一式两联,申请人除填写正面内容外,还须签具背面的“开证申请人承诺书”。
