International trading has always been a part of the natural stone business and it is relatively easy to make payment and receive promised goods. While various forms of payment are acceptable, the most common ones in international trade are described below.

Foreign Draft Check - Issued by your bank, drawn on a foreign correspondent bank. Can be issued in foreign currency. Avoids possible delays.

Import Letter of Credit - It is the promise to pay an overseas seller when certain documents are presented. If the documents are in order, the bank makes the payment to the seller. The bank then collects from the buyer.

International Wires -  Most banks all over the world can tranfer and receive U.S. dollar wire transfers to and from almost any foreign institution.

Local payments, on the other hand, may take the form of cash, credit, credit card, bank guarantee or some special form of financing agreement.

Your mode and method of payment will be determined by our billing department.
