What to Focus On

  • Indent is an order in foreign trade.
  • It is placed to a middleman or export agent.
  • Open, closed, and confirmatory are the three types of indent.

  • Letter of credit is issued by the importer’s bank.
  • It guarantees payment to the exporter.
  • It improves trust in international trade.

  • Bill of lading is issued by the shipping company.
  • It is both an acknowledgement and a document of title.
  • It is usually prepared in triplicate.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

An indent is the same as a direct order placed with the exporter.

Closed indent means the exporter can choose the quality, quantity, and price freely.

A letter of credit is issued by the exporter’s bank to protect the exporter after goods are shipped.
