Short Summary
This legal document, part of the Nevada Revised Statutes under the Uniform Commercial CodeOriginal Articles, governs the issuance, amendment, cancellation, and duration of letters of credit. According to the document, a letter of credit becomes enforceable against the issuer when it is sent or transmitted to the person requested to advise or the beneficiary. The document states that a letter of credit is revocable only if it explicitly provides for revocation. Amendments or cancellations to a letter of credit do not affect the rights and obligations of the beneficiary, applicant, confirmer, and issuer unless they have consented or the letter of credit allows for amendment or cancellation without consent. If a letter of credit does not have a stated expiration date or provision determining its duration, it expires one year after its stated date of issuance or, if none is stated, after the date of issuance. However, if a letter of credit states that it is perpetual, it expires five years after its stated date of issuance or, if none is stated, after the date of issuance.
