1. Importer (Buyer) and Exporter (Seller) negotiate terms of International Supply Agreement
2. Importer instructs its bank, the Issuing Bank, to open a LC in favour of the Exporter
3. Importer’s bank (the Issuing Bank) issues the LC to the Exporter’s bank – the Confirming
Bank (also known as the Advising Bank)

5. Goods are shipped by Exporter
6. Shipping documents are prepared and submitted to Confirming Bank by Exporter

Importer’s account is debited (9.)
