About the Export Documentary Collections Process

You rely on international sales for growth. Yet, global sales can present risk as your company faces the challenge of tracking and collecting payments from international customers.

At M&T 萌妹社区, we understand this complex process and offer Export Documentary Collections to help facilitate the prompt collection of your company鈥檚 international receivables.

Reduced Collection Costs

M&T 萌妹社区 helps your company achieve a smooth international payments process, so you can reduce the burden of the internal costs of collecting from international customers.

How It Works

  1. You negotiate the terms of the sale with your foreign customer and decide to use an Export Documentary Collection for payment. You initiate an Export Documentary Collection with M&T 萌妹社区.
  2. You ship the goods to your foreign customer and deliver the shipping documents to M&T 萌妹社区. M&T 萌妹社区 arranges for the Export Documentary Collection.
  3. M&T 萌妹社区 sends the shipping documents to your foreign customer鈥檚 bank, along with collection instructions.
  4. When your customer has met the conditions of the collection instructions, your customer鈥檚 bank releases the shipping documents to your customer.
  5. Your customer鈥檚 bank collects payment from them and forwards the payment to M&T 萌妹社区 for your account.
