Advance Payment to seller before shipment of goods
Apply Now Find Nearest BranchAdvance Import Remittance is one of the most prevalent types of settlement in international trade, where buyer is required to send payment to seller before goods are shipped and seller receives the payment in advance. This type of payment is insisted when buyer is unknown to seller and/or seller is enjoying monopoly/commanding position in the market.

Here is how advance import payment works for seamless transactions:
Buyer and Seller agree to conduct business on advance payment terms.
Buyer applies to his bank to make an advance payment against impending imports.
Buyer makes advance payment to the Seller through the Bank.
After receipt of payment, seller ships goods and forwards the documents directly to the buyer.
On receipt of goods, buyer will submit Bill of entry details to the Bank.
