The question raised was whether a Health Certificate was required to contain the grade of the goods (as mentioned in the goods description in the credit) and whether the absence of this data on that document would create a conflict with the data shown on other documents (which included reference to the grade).
The credit provided no information as to the requirements for the content of the Health Certificate in relation to the goods description.
The examination of this document would be subject to sub-article 14 (f). There cannot be a conflict of data unless the Health Certificate showed a grade of the goods and that grade was different to that stated in the credit or any other stipulated document. There is no discrepancy.
See Opinion R728 (TA.685rev) for the full transcript of the above.
