Creating a new L/C is easy. Standard L/C formats can be created once and stored as models for repetitive use. Then, only the variable information required (expiry date, amount, etc.) needs to be entered to complete the request. L/Cs can be submitted to Wachovia's Trade Processing centers in the United States and overseas. Import Services applies sophisticated controls and configuration options that allow the workflow to be customized to your business needs, while providing for efficiency and ease of use in managing your LC requirements.
