ISP or UCP Clause Samples

The 'ISP or UCP' clause specifies which set of international rules—either the International Standby Practices (ISP) or the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP)—will govern a letter of credit or standby letter of credit. In practice, this clause clarifies whether the transaction will be subject to the procedures, definitions, and dispute resolution mechanisms outlined in the chosen set of rules. For example, a standby letter of credit may be governed by the ISP, while a commercial letter of credit may reference the UCP. The core function of this clause is to ensure all parties have a clear understanding of the legal framework that applies, thereby reducing ambiguity and potential disputes regarding the interpretation and execution of the credit.
ISP or UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the International Standby Practices (the “ISP”) shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance (“UCP”, and each of the UCP and the ISP, an “ICC Rule”), shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank’s privileges, rights and remedies under such ICC Rules shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, its privileges, rights and remedies expressly provided for herein and pursuant to applicable laws governing the Letter of Credit. The UCP and the ISP (or such later revision of either) shall serve, in the absence of proof to the contrary, as evidence of general banking usage with respect to the subject matter thereof.
