Scenario 1

To take Hatem's example, what about if a DC calls for a shipment deadline date of 1 July 2002 and an expiry date of 1 August 2002 but also states that documents must be presented no later than 15 days after shipment?

Scenario 2

What about calling for an air waybill (grade 1 in terms of difficulty in providng a good answer) or an air charter party (grade 2), or a multimodal transport document (grade 3) or a multimodal transport BL (grade 4) but specifying shipment from port of loading to port of discharge?

Grade 2 or above are intended for those bankers or traders who know the basics about transport and the current shipping practices.
