According to the time when the bill falls due, bills of exchange may be divided into sight (or demand) bill or a time (or usance ) bill. *A sight bill demands immediate payment by the drawee at the sight of the bill. *In case of a time bill, the drawee is required to accept it first and pay it at a fixed or determinable future time, in other words, it requires acceptance before payment.

Import & Export Practices The operation process of draft includes: to draw--presentation-- acceptance--payment-- endorsement--dishonor and recourse Drafts are negotiable instruments and may be sold. 4. Use Bill of Exchange in Foreign Trade

Import & Export Practices To draw is to fill up by the drawer the particulars in a bill of exchange the date of drawing, the name of the drawee, the time and amount of the payment, etc. The draft is signed by the drawer and then sent to the payee. (1) To draw--issuance

Import & Export Practices There are three kinds of ways to fill up the payee: * Restrictive payee, such as pay…Co. only, pay … Co. not transferable; 限制性抬头 * To order, such as pay … Co. or Order or Pay to the Order of … Co. This type requires endorsement when transferable. 指示性抬头 * To bearer, such as pay bearer. This type requires no endorsement.

Import & Export Practices The act of taking the bill to the drawee and demanding that he make the payment or accept the bill is known as presentation. For a sight bill, payment should be made at the same time when the presentation is made, and for a time bill, the drawee is required to accept the bill when the bill is presented to him. (2) Presentation

Import & Export Practices The formal act whereby the drawee adopts the bill as his own obligation is known as acceptance. Acceptance is the written signification( 含义 ) by the drawee of his assent to the order of the drawer. (3) Acceptance *This is accomplished in the regular manner by writing the word “Acceptance”, with the date and the signature of the drawee, across the face of the bill. When the bill is accepted by the drawee, he is then known as an acceptor.

Import & Export Practices Under a sight bill, the drawee is required to make the payment when the bill is presented to him while for a time bill, the drawee is required to accept the bill when the bill is presented to him and make the payment at the maturity of the bill. When paid, the bill is retained by the payer while the receipt is made and signed by the holder of the bill. (4) Payment

Import & Export Practices * Endorsement The bill of exchange is negotiable and transferable as the payee on most bills is to “to the order of…”. Negotiation and transfer is effected with endorsement. If the payee on the bill is to “to the bearer”, then negotiation and transfer is done with mere delivery of the bill. Endorsement is done when the payee has signed his name on the back of the bill with or without additional words conveying instructions or qualifying liability.

Import & Export Practices 背书 (Endorsement) 背书是转让汇票权利的一种法定手续，就是由汇票持有人在汇票背面签上自己的名字，或再加上受让人即被背书人的名字，并把汇票交给受让人的行为。票据可以经过多次连续背书转让流通 A 背书 B 背书 C 背书 D 背书 E C 的前手： A 、 B C 的后手： D 、 E – 前手对后手负有担保汇票必然会被承兑或付款的责任。

Import & Export Practices * Endorsement Generally speaking, there are three main endorsements, namely special 特别背书 / 记名背书, blank 空白背书, restrictive 限制性背书.

Import & Export Practices Restrictive Endorsement The endorser may write clearly on the upper part of the signature on the back of the bill the endorsee with restrictive conditions. A restrictive endorsement is one which limits the bill for further negotiation, such as “Pay … only” or “Pay … non-transfer”. Once the bill is restrictively endorsed, it cannot be transferred any more.

Import & Export Practices Demonstrative Endorsement A demonstrative endorsement is one which specifies the person to whom, or to whose order, the bill is to be payable, such as “Pay … or to order of”.

Import & Export Practices Blank Endorsement A blank endorsement, or endorsement in blank, is one which specifies no payee. The effect of a blank endorsement is to make the bill payable to bearer and to make delivery and without additional endorsement. The bearer or holder of a bill so endorsed may sometimes required, however, to place his endorsement upon it at the time of making a further negotiation.

Import & Export Practices 票据 — 汇票在国际市场上，一张远期汇票的持有人如想在付款人付款前，取得票款，可以经过背书转让汇票，即将汇票进行贴现。贴现 (Discount) 是指远期汇票承兑后，尚未到期，由银行或贴现公司从票面金额中扣减按一定贴现率计算的贴现息后，将余款付给持票人的行为。

Import & Export Practices （ 5 ） Dishonor 拒付 * the refusal to make payment or accept a bill by the payer when it is presented for payment or acceptance.

Import & Export Practices （ 6 ） recourse 追索 * Upon dishonor, the holder of the bill should immediately make the protest (or certificate of dishonor) and exercise his right of recourse against his prior endorser.

Import & Export Practices （ 6 ） recourse 追索 * the holder must obtain a “certificate of protest” from a notary public ( 公证人 ), a law court or other institutions that have been authorized by law to issue such a certificate to certify the dishonor of the draft. The drawee refuses to pay or accept. This is a legal procedure to register officially that the draft presented for payment or acceptance has been dishonored by the drawee.

Import & Export Practices Promissory Note A promissory note is an unconditional promise in writing made by one person to another signed by the maker, engaging to pay, on demand or at a fixed or determinable future time, a sum certain in money, or to the order, of a specified person or to bearer.

Import & Export Practices The main difference between a promissory note and a draft lies in that there are three parties, namely drawer, drawee and payee involved in a draft but only two, drawer and payee in a promissory note. Promissory Note The payee of promissory note is the drawer himself.

Import & Export Practices Promissory Note Promissory notes can be made by commercial firms, called commercial promissory notes, or bankers, called bank promissory notes.

Import & Export Practices Promissory Note Commercial promissory notes can be sight promissory notes or time promissory notes; while bank promissory notes can only be sight. In international trade, most promissory notes are drawn by bankers which are mostly not negotiable.

Import & Export Practices Promissory Note A promissory note is like a bill of exchange that has been accepted, and can only have one copy.

Import & Export Practices Promissory Note Commercial promissory notes are rarely used in international trade practice. But in domestic trade practice in some countries, some sellers accept commercial promissory notes as a guarantee for the payment. 我国《票据法》规定： “ 本法所称本票是指银行本票 ” ， “ 本票出票人的资格由中国人民银行审定 ” 。

Import & Export Practices 票据 — 本票

Import & Export Practices 本票与汇票的区别本票是无条件支付承诺，汇票是无条件支付命令；本票两个当事人（出票人和收款），汇票三个当事人（出票人、付款人和收款人）；含义当事人

Import & Export Practices 本票出票人是主要债务人，汇票承兑前，出票人是主要债务人，承兑后，承兑人是主要债务人 ; 本票只能开出一张，汇票可以开出一式两份或一套几张 ; 外国本票退票时，不需做成拒绝证书，外国汇票退票时，必须做成拒绝证书。责任份数退票

Import & Export Practices Promissory Note 本票的出票人在持票人提示见票时，必须承担付款的责任。本票自出票日起，付款期限最长不得超过２个月。本票的持票人未按照规定期限提示见票的，丧失对出票人以外的前手的追索权。

Import & Export Practices Cheque (Check) A check is an unconditional order in writing drawn on a banker signed by the drawer, requiring the banker to pay on demand a sum certain in money to or to the order of a specified person or to bearer.

Import & Export Practices Cheque (Check) A check is a special kind of draft —the drawee is always a bank with which the drawer has an account. — Besides, a check is always paid upon presentation. If the drawer wants to write a check now but does not want the payee to collect the money immediately, the drawer can postdate the check. — A check can be made to order, to bearer, crossed with two parallel lines for account deposit only, or certified by a bank that is going to pay. If a check is issued by a bank, it is called a banker’s demand draft.

Import & Export Practices Cheque (Check) A cheque drawn on a bank overseas cannot be readily negotiated by the exporter. If the exporter’s bank were prepared to negotiate it for him then he would receive payment right away but at the cost of the discount

Import & Export Practices Cheque (Check) Failing this the exporter would have to ask his bank to collect the cheque for him and this would be both time—consuming and relatively expensive ．指出票人签发支票时，应在付款银行存有不低于票面金额的存款。如存款不足，支票持有人在向付款银行提示支票要求付款时，就会遭到拒付。这种支票叫做空头支票。开出空头支票的出票人要负法律上的责任。
