After receiving the letter of credit, you need to review it as soon as possible and inform the customer of the specific parts that need to be modified. Even if you accept all the letters and there is no need to modify them, you still need to give the customer a confirmation. Generally, the customer will first provide a draft to the supplier for confirmation, and then ask the bank to issue the original letter of credit. This can minimize the cost and trouble of modifying the letter of credit.
