Effectiveness of the new version of Incoterms 2010 will not affect liabilities undertaken by the parties according to previous versions of Incoterms. We note that provisions of Incoterms are not a generally binding legal act, but rather a set of commercial practice, binding on parties only if they have included a reference to an applicable version and certain term of Incoterms in their product sales agreement. As of 1 January 2011, if an agreement does not contain a reference to any of previous Incoterms versions, it will be deemed that the reference pertains to Incoterms 2010./p>

Usually several original copies of the bill of lading are issued and it is very important for the purchaser or the bank which acts according its instructions when making the payment, to ensure delivery of all original copies to the purchaser (so called "full set'’). It is also a requirement included in the ICC Rules for Documentary Credits and ICC Uniform Customs and Practice, "UCP". Any entry in transport documents, indicating at goods not received in appropriate condition, renders that document "dirty" and unacceptable pursuant to UCP.
