You can track the status of your documents using the shipping number (Airway Bill Number. A condition for document tracking is that the documents must have been picked up or received and registered by DHL Netherlands.
Go to Letter of Credit (under FAQ) for tracking instructions for documents under a Letter of Credit.
Go to Documentary Collection (under FAQ) for tracking instructions for documents under a Documentary Collection.
If you and/or your trading partner want more security when doing business internationally, a Documentary Collection can be a good option.
A Documentary Collection sees banks take on an intermediary role for delivery of trade documents and payment processing, but they do not guarantee payment.
With a Letter of Credit, on the other hand, one of the banks involved does guarantee payment. The importer’s bank undertakes to pay a certain amount once the exporter has complied with the terms of the Letter of Credit.
