A free 15-question self-assessment for exporters about to present documents under a letter of credit. Each question is one of the checkpoints where presentations most often fail under UCP 600 — answer honestly, with the credit and your documents in front of you.
Get a document-level review: the $25 automated UCP 600 / ISBP 821 check reads your actual documents line by line, lists every discrepancy with the rule it breaches, and tells you what to correct before you present.
Get a document-level reviewThe 15 questions are drawn from the checkpoints document examiners raise most often: the expiry / shipment / presentation dates triangle (UCP 600 Articles 6 and 14), the invoice rules (Articles 18 and 30), the bill of lading rules (Articles 20 and 27), insurance cover (Article 28), originals and signatures (Article 17), and cross-document data consistency (Article 14(d)). For the full rule-by-rule detail behind each question, see our pre-presentation checklist, 10 worked discrepancy examples, and the refusal playbook.
What no questionnaire can see is your actual paper — the transposed container number, the goods description that drops one word of field 45A, the insurance certificate dated two days after the on-board date. Those are found by reading the documents themselves, which is what the $25 automated document check does.
This test is a rules-grounded self-check, not a guarantee or legal advice. It does not predict or guarantee any bank's examination decision — always read your credit's own terms, which override the defaults described here.
