Abstract

Ödeme talebiyle akreditif tahtında ibraz edilen yükleme belgelerinin yüzde 70’i uluslararası standart kurallara ve akreditif şartlarına uygun olmadıkları için ödeme red edilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, söz konusu risk ve kayıpları azaltmak için taşıma belgelerinin, uluslararası standart kurallarına uygun düzenlenmesinde dikkat edilmesi gereken kilit hususları belirlemektir. 2018’de ulaşılabilen SWIFT red mesajları verileri üzerinden akreditif tahtında ibraz edilen ihracat yükleme belgeleri red oranı %41,41 ve ithalat red oranı %30,02 bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak söz konusu risk ve kayıpların azaltılması için ihracatçı, ithalatçı ve taşımacılar, standart uluslararası kurallara uygun taşıma belgesi düzenlenmesinde uluslararası taşıma kurallarının kilit unsurlarına dikkat etmelidir.
