While opening import LC at the request of the importer, the LC opening Bank will see:
1. If the item is not covered under OGL (Open General Licence) then the Importer must have import licence
2. The importer should have import-export Registration No. from RBI
3.The importer should have financial capacity to pay for the LC documents as & when they arrive

Thank you Sir, for the above answer,...but my query is not yet solved...I am aware of all the 3 points mentioned by yourself...
Just want to ask whether accepted Purchase Order can be an alternative to Proforma Invoice while submitting an application for opening an import LC...
