Financing also differs compared to local trade, and there are some specific methods used in international trade like documentary credit, although there is no limitation for documentary credits to be used in local trade. Documentary credit is a well-known method generally used in international trade. This chapter aims to define the role of documentary credits in international trade finance. In this chapter along with other finance methods, documentary credits, types, process will be explained. It is aimed to help importers and exporters how to mitigate the potential risks by using documentary credit.
