Any Chinese port

Post by SladjanaSkakic » Fri Aug 14, 2009 1:00 am

Your opinion in this question will be much appreciated:
.
L/C requirement: Shipment from any Chinese port
Delivery terms: FOB any Chinese port
.
B/L states: Shipped on board at Hong Kong
Invoice states: Delivery terms: FOB Hong Kong
.
We know that Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People’s Republic of China since July 1, 1997, with high degree of autonomy, but it is quite confusing ..
.
My simple question: Is L/Cs requirement for the shipment from any Chinese port fulfilled when B/L shows on board at Hong Kong?
.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,

Despite the fact that Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China and practising “One Country Two System” with high degree of autonomy, I do believe China will strongly protest if anyone says Hong Kong now does not belong to China.

Hong Kong is part of China. So, if L/C requires shipment to be effected from any Chinese port, B/L showing on board at Hong Kong is acceptable.

Best regards,
N.H. Duc

I agree. In the US we had a similar question and the majority response is that Hong Kong is a Chinese Port
