Ah, what a lovely question! Usance and deferred payment LCs both involve payment terms in trade transactions, but there's a subtle difference. Usance LC allows the buyer a specific period after receiving the goods to make the payment, while deferred payment LC allows the buyer to make the payment at a later date agreed upon in the LC. Both methods offer flexibility and trust between the parties involved in the transaction.
In simplest words, A sight LC means that whenever the Bill of Exchange is presented at counter, it must be paid then and there (ofcourse if the LC docx are in order). While a Usance Bill is first presented then accepted and after that it is paid. Usance bills are usually for a period of 30, 60, 90 days. So if a usance bill is of 30 days then it would be paid 30 days after presentation and acceptance.
Yes, a sight letter of credit can be transferred as usance. The seller can request the bank to transfer the payment terms from sight to usance, enabling the buyer to make payment at a later date as agreed upon in the letter of credit.
