Contracts·第四条:信用证与合同 【a】A credit by its nature is a separate transaction from the sale or other contract on which it may be based. Banks are in no way concerned with or bound by such contract, even if any reference whatsoever to it is included in the credit. Consequently, the undertaking of a bank to honour, to negotiate or to fulfil any other obligation under the credit is not subject to claims or defences by the applicant resulting from its relationships with the issuing bank or the beneficiary. A beneficiary can in no case avail itself of the contractual relationships existing between banks or between the applicant and the issuing bank.就性质而言，信用证与可能作为其依据的销售合同或其它合同，是相互独立的交易。即使信用证中提及该合同，银行亦与该合同完全无关，且不受其约束。因此，一家银行作出兑付、议付或履行信用证项下其它义务的承诺，并不受申请人与开证行之间或与受益人之间在已有关系下产生的索偿或抗辩的制约。受益人在任何情况下，不得利用银行之间或申请人与开证行之间的契约关系。【b】An issuing bank should discourage any attempt by the applicant to include, as an integral part of the credit, copies of the underlying contract, proforma invoice and the like.开证行应劝阻申请人将基础合同、形式发票或其它类似文件的副本作为信用证整体组成部分的作法。Article 5 Documents v. Goods, Services or Performance·第五条:单据与货物服务行为Banks deal with documents and not with goods, services or performance to which the documents may relate .银行处理的是单据，而不是单据所涉及的货物、服务或其它行为。Article 6 Availability, Expiry Date and Place for Presentation·第六条:有效性、有效期限及提示地点 【a】A credit must state the bank with which it is available or whether it is available with any bank. A credit available with a nominated bank is also available with the issuing bank.信用证必须规定可以有效使用信用证的银行，或者信用证是否对任何银行均为有效。对于被指定银行有效的信用证同样也对开证行有效。【b】A credit must state whether it is available by sight payment, deferred payment, acceptance or negotiation.信用证必须规定它是否适用于即期付款、延期付款、承兑抑或议付。【c】A credit must not be issued available by a draft drawn on the applicant.不得开立包含有以申请人为汇票付款人条款的信用证。【d】 A credit must state an expiry date for presentation. An expiry date stated for honour or negotiation will be deemed to be an expiry date for presentation. 信用证必须规定提示单据的有效期限。规定的用于兑付或者议付的有效期限将被认为是提示单据的有效期限。 The place of the bank with which the credit is available is the place for presentation. The place for presentation under a credit available with any bank is that of any bank. A place for presentation other than that of the issuing bank is in addition to the place of the issuing bank.可以有效使用信用证的银行所在的地点是提示单据的地点。对任何银行均为有效的信用证项下单据提示的地点是任何银行所在的地点。不同于开证行地点的提示单据的地点是开证行地点之外提交单据的地点。【e】Except as provided in sub-article 29 (a), a presentation by or on behalf of the beneficiary must be made on or before the expiry date.除非如29(a)中规定，由受益人或代表受益人提示的单据必须在到期日当日或在此之前提交。Article 7 Issuing Bank Undertaking·第七条:开证行的承诺 【a】Provided that the stipulated documents are presented to the nominated bank or to the issuing bank and that they constitute a complying presentation, the issuing bank must honour if the credit is available by:倘若规定的单据被提交至被指定银行或开证行并构成相符提示，开证行必须按下述信用证所适用的情形予以兑付：sight payment, deferred payment or acceptance with the issuing bank;由开证行即期付款、延期付款或者承兑；sight payment with a nominated bank and that nominated bank does not pay;由被指定银行即期付款而该被指定银行未予付款；deferred payment with a nominated bank and that nominated bank does not incur its deferred payment undertaking or, having incurred its deferred payment undertaking, does not pay at maturity;由被指定银行延期付款而该被指定银行未承担其延期付款承诺，或者虽已承担延期付款承诺但到期未予付款；acceptance with a nominated bank and that nominated bank does not accept a draft drawn on it or, having accepted a draft drawn on it, does not pay at maturity;由被指定银行承兑而该被指定银行未予承兑以其为付款人的汇票，或者虽已承兑以其为付款人的汇票但到期未予付款；negotiation with a nominated bank and that nominated bank does not negotiate.由被指定银行议付而该被指定银行未予议付。【b】An issuing bank is irrevocably bound to honour as of the time it issues the credit.自信用证开立之时起，开证行即不可撤销地受到兑付责任的约束。【c】An issuing bank undertakes to reimburse a nominated bank that has honoured or negotiated a complying presentation and forwarded the documents to the issuing bank. Reimbursement for the amount of a complying presentation under a credit available by acceptance or deferred payment is due at maturity, whether or not the nominated bank prepaid or purchased before maturity. An issuing bank's undertaking to reimburse a nominated bank is independent of the issuing banks undertaking to the beneficiary.开证行保证向对于相符提示已经予以兑付或者议付并将单据寄往开证行的被指定银行进行偿付。无论被指定银行是否于到期日前已经对相符提示予以预付或者购买，对于承兑或延期付款信用证项下相符提示的金额的偿付于到期日进行。开证行偿付被指定银行的承诺独立于开证行对于受益人的承诺。Article 8 Confirming Bank Undertaking·第八条:保兑行的承诺 Provided that the stipulated documents are presented to the confirming bank or to any other nominated bank and that they constitute a complying presentation, the confirming bank must:倘若规定的单据被提交至保兑行或者任何其他被指定银行并构成相符提示，保兑行必须：honour, if the credit is available by：兑付，如果信用证适用于：（a）sight payment, deferred payment or acceptance with the confirming bank;由保兑行即期付款、延期付款或者承兑；（b）sight payment with another nominated bank and that nominated bank does not pay;由另一家被指定银行即期付款而该被指定银行未予付款；（c）deferred payment with another nominated bank and that nominated bank does not incur its deferred payment undertaking or, having incurred its deferred payment undertaking, does not pay at maturity;由另一家被指定银行延期付款而该被指定银行未承担其延期付款承诺，或者虽已承担延期付款承诺但到期未予付款；（d）acceptance with another nominated bank and that nominated bank does not accept a draft drawn on it or, having accepted a draft drawn on it, does not pay at maturity;由另一家被指定银行承兑而该被指定银行未予承兑以其为付款人的汇票，或者虽已承兑以其为付款人的汇票但到期未予付款；（e） negotiation with another nominated bank and that nominated bank does not negotiate.由另一家被指定银行议付而该被指定银行未予议付。negotiate, without recourse无追索权, （a）if the credit is available by negotiation with the confirming bank.若信用证由保兑行议付，无追索权地议付。（b）A confirming bank is irrevocably bound to honour or negotiate as of the time it adds its confirmation to the credit.自为信用证加具保兑之时起，保兑行即不可撤销地受到兑付或者议付责任的约束。（c）A confirming bank undertakes to reimburse another nominated bank that has honoured or negotiated a complying presentation and forwarded the documents to the confirming bank. Reimbursement for the amount of a complying presentation under a credit available by acceptance or deferred payment is due at maturity, whether or not another nominated bank prepaid or purchased before maturity. A confirming bank's undertaking to reimburse another nominated bank is independent of the confirming banks undertaking to the beneficiary.保兑行保证向对于相符提示已经予以兑付或者议付并将单据寄往开证行的另一家被指定银行进行偿付。无论另一家被指定银行是否于到期日前已经对相符提示予以预付或者购买，对于承兑或延期付款信用证项下相符提示的金额的偿付于到期日进行。保兑行偿付另一家被指定银行的承诺独立于保兑行对于受益人的承诺。（d） If a bank is authorized or requested by the issuing bank to confirm a credit but is not prepared to do so, it must inform the issuing bank without delay and may advise the credit without confirmation.如开证行授权或要求另一家银行对信用证加具保兑，而该银行不准备照办时，它必须不延误地告知开证行并仍可通知此份未经加具保兑的信用证。Article 9 Advising of Credits and Amendments·第九条:信用证及修改的通知 【a】A credit and any amendment may be advised to a beneficiary through an advising bank. An advising bank that is not a confirming bank advises the credit and any amendment without any undertaking to honour or negotiate. a. 信用证及其修改可以通过通知行通知受益人。除非已对信用证加具保兑，通知行通知信用证不构成兑付或议付的承诺。【b】By advising the credit or amendment, the advising bank signifies that it has satisfied itself as to the apparent authenticity of the credit or amendment and that the advice accurately reflects the terms and conditions of the credit or amendment received.通过通知信用证或修改，通知行即表明其认为信用证或修改的表面真实性得到满足，且通知准确地反映了所收到的信用证或修改的条款及条件。【c】An advising bank may utilize the services of another bank (“second advising bank”) to advise the credit and any amendment to the beneficiary. By advising the credit or amendment, the second advising bank signifies that it has satisfied itself as to the apparent authenticity of the advice it has received and that the advice accurately reflects the terms and conditions of the credit or amendment received.通知行可以利用另一家银行的服务（“第二通知行”）向受益人通知信用证及其修改。通过通知信用证或修改，第二通知行即表明其认为所收到的通知的表面真实性得到满足，且通知准确地反映了所收到的信用证或修改的条款及条件。【d】 A bank utilizing the services of an advising bank or second advising bank to advise a credit must use the same bank to advise any amendment thereto.如一家银行利用另一家通知行或第二通知行的服务将信用证通知给受益人，它也必须利用同一家银行的服务通知修改书。【e】If a bank is requested
