Article 5 states: “Banks deal with documents and not with goods, services or performance to which the documents may relate.

Usage of terms like "from" and "after", "on or about" "beginning"," middle" "end" of a month, "first half" and "second half" of a month have been defined in this article.

Also this article clarifies that Branches of a bank in different countries are treated as different Banks for the purpose of Documentary Credit

Article 2 defnes Banking day . IT IS a day on which a bank is regularly open for performance

An important aspect of this definition lies in the use of the word ‘regularly’.

IF A bank were TO BE open FROM MONDAY TO Saturday for a half or full day to perform the handling of documentary credits, THEN SUCH SATURDAY would BE countED as a banking day UNDER UCP

Thanking you. TAKE CARE. STAY SAFE.
