What is your understanding about "Manually signed". Is this means handwritten signature ?

L/C is asking a documents manually signed and documents received shows signature in stamp.

Is it a discrepancy ?

Hi, Sean

Yes. Manually signed means handwritten signatures. We have encountered a few cases where the issuing banks have insisted that the doc was discrepant because it was not signed as per LC requirement. The doc concerned even includes ins. policy/cert where it has no longer bear any handwritten signatures.

Shahed,

I have no doubt that the term ‘manually signed’ is intended to mean signed by pen. Whether it could be interpreted in other ways as well is not a discussion in which I would want to be involved.

Official opinion R198. A document which bears a hand-written signature is manually signed
