Bill of Lading matches with the document of title and carrier receipt; Certificate of Origin matches with the document stating the manufacturing country; Consular Invoice matches with the document signed by the consul to verify invoice prices; Letter of Credit matches with the bank payment guarantee.
The correct matches align each document with its defined statutory role in international business: the Bill of Lading confirms ownership and receipt by the carrier; the Certificate of Origin proves the country of manufacture; the Consular Invoice confirms fair price reporting through consular verification; and the Letter of Credit provides financial settlement security via an issuing bank.
