Letter of Credit (LC)

It is done by local bank automatically. To get additional guarantee, supplier can ask his bank to ensure this transaction. In this case, LC becomes a confirmed one.
For example, Our company, based in Istanbul agrees with a German supplier to purchase some goods valued € 25,000. In this case, we ask our bank to prepare an irrevocable LC with this amount. Our bank realizes the payment when it is due. Let’s assume that both our company and our bank was collapsed due to a big economical crisis in Turkey. Than, German bank realizes the payment if it was a confirmed and irrevocable LC. It means German bank is liable of Turkish bank too.

Due Date, … days

In this payment term, supplier should fully trust to customer. Supplier prepares and delivers goods and sends all the documents directly to customer. Buyer makes the payment 30-45 or previously agreed days later than the invoice date. According to Turkish Import Regime, imports with due date payments are subject to a certain tax. Rate of this tax is 6% for the time being.
