Documentary collection means the collection accompanied with commercial documents. The documentary collection is divided into Documents against Payment (D/P) and Documents against Acceptance (D/A).
① Documents against Payment (D/P) 付款交单
The document against payment refers to that the seller delivers the documents upon receipt of the payment from the buyer (importer). The buyer cannot get the documents until it makes the payment to the seller. According to the different time of payment, document against payment can be further divided into D/P at sight and D/P after sight.

The bank releases the documents to the buyer on receipt of the full payment from the buyer. The procedure of D/P at sight can be seen in the following figure (Fig. 4-4).
