B: Well, Mrs.Wang, you must be aware that an irrevocable letter of cred it gives the exporter the additional protection of the banker’s guarantee.We always require L/C
商务英语口语
for our exports.And the other way round, we pay by L/C for our imports.王小姐,你应该也知道,不可撤消的信用证给出口商增加了银行的担保。我们出口一向要求采用信用证;反过来讲,我们进口也是信用证付款。
A: To meet you half way, what do you say if 50% by L/C and the balance by D/P?
我们都各让一步吧,货价的百分之五十用信用证,其余的采用付款 交单,你看怎么样?
B: I’m very sorry, Mrs.Wang.But I’m afraid I can’t promise you even that.As I’ve said, we require payment by L/C.对不起,王小姐。即便那样,我恐怕也不能答应。我都说过了,我们要求用信用证付款。
