Your Concern as an Exporter (Supplier):

Mitigating the risk of non-payment by importers.

Export Collection Bills Service:

• Under an Export Collection Bill arrangement, you will ship the goods and request us to send the trade documents and collection instructions to your importer’s bank.
• The importer’s bank will then request payment from your importer.
• To protect your interests, we will not instruct the importer’s bank to release the trade documents until your importer has made payment or promised to pay at a later date agreed between you and your importer.
• We can liaise with your importer's bank and arrange for the release of the trade documents at your specific instructions:  

Documents against Payment (D/P):

Documents will only be released if the importer makes payment. 

Documents against Acceptance (D/A):

Documents will only be released if the importer accepts the bills of exchange (draft), thereby agreeing to pay at a specified maturity date.
