LC In The Client's Name In An Import Murabaha
In case of import of goods under Murabaha agreement, is it permissible for the documentary credit to bear the name of the client along with the bank, or the client's name alone?
In general, it does not affect the validity of the Murabaha transaction if the documentary credit mentions the client as the co-importer or sole importer. However, this is against the essence of the Murabaha transaction and should be strictly avoided.
