Qestion maybe stupid but what would you accept if a DC requires that the B/L show goods weight?

Maybe stupid answer, I would accept any wheight appearing which is not inconsistent with other document (mainly weight note if presented)

Monique,
On Fridays, I think it is allowed to ask stupid questions and to receive stupid answers. But your answer is not stupid. Actually, it is the only possible one. So I wonder why I feel ill at ease with such a condition.

Because it is an unusual condition !

Daniel,

I cannot see any obvious reason why the requirement you mention should cause a nominated / issuing bank any difficulty in principle.

Daniel,
I would pay attn to following detail: the b/l to indicate both gross and net weight (that must be consistent with all other docs).
Iss.bank might reject docs if b/l only indicates gross weight.

Bogdan,
On what grounds would base your reasoning?
Daniel
