信用证主要有以下不符点:

1信用证金额未考虑溢短装条款，如果溢装，则会出现单证不一致，故金额应该为”。

2 信用证性质不符合合同的要求，将Revocable 改成Irrevocable。

3 汇票的付款期限有误，应将at 30 days after sight 改为15。

4运输条款有误，因合同规定采用FOB 贸易术语，因此，运费条款“Freight Prepaid”应改为“Freight Collect”。

5 删除保险条款。由于合同规定采用FOB 贸易术语，故不应该有出口方提供保险单。

6 检查条款应当删去，“Inspection Certificate issued by applicant”因为是信用证软条款。或者改为“Inspection Certificate issued by beneficiary”
