Sample Letter One: Asking for Amendment to L/C
Re: L/C No.AC-567
We have today received your L/C No.AC-567 covering the shipment of 2,000 metric tons of Rice. After we have checked the L/C carefully, we find the L/C stipulations are not in strict conformity with the terms of our Sales Contract No. 473. Thus, we have to ask you to make the following amendments:
1. The quantity should read: 2,000 metric tons (5% more or less at Seller’s option). However, in your L/C, “5% more or less at Seller’s option” is omitted.
2. Draft to be at 30 days after sight, instead of at 90 days after sight.
3. The last shipment date should be extended to the end of November and the validity of the credit to December 15.
Please confirm your amendments by fax, so that we may arrange shipment accordingly.
Yours faithfully,

2. metric tons (abbr. M/T) 公吨国际贸易中常用度量衡单位,在公制当中表示重量。除此而外,还有英制和美制的度量衡单位有时也使用。现就“吨”这个单位在不同的度量衡制度中的等量关系列明如下:
1 metric ton=2,204.6 lb=1,000 kg (metric system) 公吨(公制)
=0.9842 long ton =1.1023 short ton
1 long ton =2,240 lb=1,016 M/T (British system) 长吨(英制)
1 short ton=2,000 lb=0.907 M/T (U.S. system) 短吨(美制)
3. stipulation n. 约定;规定;条款
e.g. 1) to conform to / to abide by / to comply with contract stipulations遵守合同条款
2) according to the L/C stipulations按照信用证的规定
stipulate vt. & vi. 规定;订立;订明
e.g. 常用的习惯搭配有:
(1) to stipulate for sth. 规定要求
(2) to stipulate that…规定
1) The contract stipulates (for) direct shipment. 该合同规定直运。
2) We stipulate (for) payment by confirmed L/C. 我们约定凭保兑的信用证支付。
3) The contract stipulates that shipment shall/should be effected by direct steamer.

stipulated a. 约定的;规定的

2) stipulated time of shipment 约定的装运期
4. “The quantity should read”: 数量应为:
5. 5% more or less at Seller’s option: 卖方可溢交或短交5%。
在粮食、矿砂、化肥、食糖等农副产品和工矿产品的大宗商品交易中,往往由于商品的特性、生产能力、船舶舱位、装载技术和包装等原因,卖方较难准确地按合同规定的数量交货。为避免在履行合同中发生数量争议,买卖双方常常事先约定并在合同中订明这种差异的最大限度——即“数量机动幅度”。
数量机动幅度一般有两种规定方法:1)规定“溢短装条款”(“More or Less Clause”) (即本信当中的方法);2)规定“约”量(“About” or “Approximate”)(即在数量前面加上“About”字样)。
6. “Draft to be at 30 days after sight”: 汇票应为见票30天付款的汇票。

3) As there is no shipping space available within this month, we have to request you to

September and October 15 respectively.
由于本月没有舱位,我们只得要求你方将信用证中的装船期和有效期分别延展到9
月底和10月15日。
extension n. prolonging (period) 延长;延期
