The SBLC issued by your bank covers a defined number of monthly shipments. The longer the coverage, the lower the price per ton.
Standard entry option
Recommended — balanced security
Best rate — maximum coverage
* The standby letter of credit costs between 8% and 10%, and that charge is already built into the price per tonne shown above — there is nothing to add on top, and nothing to pay before the contract. This applies where the instrument is arranged through the seller’s banking channel. A buyer presenting its own standby letter of credit, issued by a top-fifty bank of its own choosing, is quoted separately: the cost then sits with the buyer’s own bank and is no longer ours to include.
Prices observed in August 2026. Sugar is a traded commodity and bank charges are repriced every year — these figures are indicative, and the rate that binds anyone is the one written into a full corporate offer countersigned by the seller at the date of your enquiry.

We do not ask you to send an instrument to a bank nobody can check. That single fact is why most of our files clear internal approval.
