Accordingly, in this paper applicable law to relationships in international letters of credit will be studied in four categories by a descriptive-analytical method 1-Relationship between issuing bank and applicant, 2- Issuing bank and advising bank relationship with beneficiary, 3- Relationship between issuing bank and advising bank, 4- Relationship between confirming bank and other parties of the letter of credit.
