A Documentary Letter of Credit is a payment mechanism used in international trade to provide an economic guarantee for parties from a creditworthy bank. The most common scenario for a Letter of Credit to be issued is where two parties enter into an agreement or a deal, and they do not know each other’s credibility well enough. Such letters of credit require the Beneficiary to present a draft and specified documents in order to receive payment, hence the name "documentary credit". 

This Documentary Letter of Credit, in particular, is 'transferable', meaning that credit can be freely transferred to one or more secondary beneficiaries. In addition, it is irrevocable meaning that it cannot be cancelled or modified by the issuing bank.
