The letter of credit is the bank instrument that assures the person selling merchandise of payment if he makes the agreed-upon shipment. 信用證是銀行對銷(xiāo)售商品者已裝運訂購的出口貨物承擔付款保證的信用工具。
Cargoes pile up on the dockside and ships wait empty because exporters cannot get letters of credit to secure payment on delivery. 由于出口商得不到銀行開(kāi)據的信用證，在得不到貨到付款保證的情況下，只能出口商品堆放在碼頭，無(wú)法裝船離港。
A credit card is not a valid proof of identity. 銀行發(fā)的支票保付卡不是有效的身份證明文件。
