第十條修改

1、Except as otherwise provided by article 38, a credit can neitherbe amended nor cancelled without the agreement of the issuing bank,the confirming bank, if any, and the beneficiary. a.除本慣例第38條另有規定外，凡未經開證行保行(如有)以及受益人同意，信用證既不能修改也不能撤銷。

2、An issuing bank is irrevocably bound by an amendment as of thetime it issues the amendment.Aconfirming bank may extend itsconfirmation to an amendment and will be irrevocably bound as of the time it advises the amendment. A confirming bank may, however, choose to advise an amendment without extending its confirmation and, if so, it must inform the issuing bank without delay and inform the beneficiary in its advice. b. 自發出信用證修改書之時起，開證行就不可撤銷地受其發出修改的約束。保兌行可將其保兌承諾擴展至修改內容，且自其通知該修改之時起，即不可撤銷地受到該修改的約束。然而，保兌行可選擇僅將修改通知受益人而不對其加具保兌，但必須不延誤地將此情況通知開證行和受益人。

As of that moment the credit will be amended.

4、A bank that advises an amendment should inform the bank from whichit received the amendment of any notification of acceptance orrejection. d.通知修的銀行應當通知向其發修書的銀行任何有關接受或拒絕接受修改的通知。
