Critical MT799 Components

  • Field 20: Transaction Reference
  • Field 21: Related Reference (future MT760)
  • Field 79: Narrative — Amount, currency, beneficiary, proposed terms, expiry, issuance timeline

We craft Field 79 wording for maximum acceptance & frictionless MT760 follow-up.

The MT799 Process

  1. Document Submission (Day 1) — Completed application, KYC, transaction summary.
  2. Bank Matching (Day 1) — We align the issuing bank and agree on pre-advice wording.
  3. Drafting (Day 2) — Compliance review; beneficiary preview if needed.
  4. SWIFT Transmission (Day 2–3) — MT799 sent; receiving bank verifies.
  5. MT760 Follow-Up (≤ 5 days) — Full SBLC issuance; MT799 auto-cancels.

Reminder: MT799 is not a payment instrument. It must be followed by a compliant MT760 SBLC.

Frequently Asked Questions (15)

1) Is MT799 a payment or guarantee?
No. It’s a bank-to-bank pre-advice indicating intent/readiness to issue a guarantee (e.g., MT760). It is not a payment instrument.
2) Why use MT799 before MT760?
Speed and signaling. Sellers/beneficiaries gain confidence while the full SBLC is finalized, helping win tenders and start production.
3) What documents are required?
Application, corporate KYC, transaction summary/contract terms, beneficiary coordinates, and proposed timelines.
4) How fast can you send MT799?
Typical 24–72h after compliance acceptance and wording alignment. Rush options may be possible.
5) Does MT799 expire?
Yes—commonly valid ~5–10 days, as it’s only a pre-advice pending the MT760 issuance.
6) What if the buyer changes terms after MT799?
We can amend or withdraw the pre-advice before MT760 issuance. Significant changes usually require a fresh compliance check.
7) Can we add confirmation on the SBLC?
Yes—confirmation can be added on the following MT760 (or LC), improving acceptance in higher-risk corridors.
8) Are there minimum deal sizes?
Typical floors: ~USD 250k–500k for specialty banks; ≥USD 1M for top-tier issuers. Corridor-dependent.
9) What costs apply?
Pre-advice fee (~0.5–1.5% of SBLC fee) plus the full MT760 fee upon issuance. Confirmations/insurances are extra if requested.
10) Do you support ESG/green projects?
Yes. Some issuers offer preferential pricing/tenors when KPIs are defined and verifiable.
11) Can a seller rely on MT799 alone?
No—commercially helpful, but legally non-binding vs. the SBLC. Sellers should rely on the MT760’s irrevocable undertaking.
12) What if the receiving bank questions Field 79?
We pre-align language with counterparties. If challenged, we amend quickly to pass their policy filters.
13) Do you assist with the MT760 draft?
Yes. We draft MT760 terms to align with UCP/ISP rules and beneficiary needs, minimizing amendments after issuance.
14) Which currencies are supported?
All majors (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, CAD, AUD) and many regionals, subject to issuer appetite and corridor rules.
15) Will you work alongside our bank?
Absolutely. We can coordinate with your bank and add a confirming bank if required.
