The International Chambers of Commerce have ratified in October 2006 new Uniform Customs & Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP600) which will supercede the UCP500 which has been in use since 1994.
Copies are available from ICC UK: publications@iccorg.co.uk.

For your information here is the brief of the changes:

• a new section of "definitions" containing terms such as "honour" and "negotiation"
• a replacement of the term "reasonable time" with a definition of number of days for examining and determining compliance of documents
• an expanded description of "original documents"
• changed practice for notice of refusal
• re-drafted transport articles
