PSI Cleared Payment
Automatic payment release when Pre-Shipment Inspection is cleared and certified
What is PSI Payment Milestone?
The PSI (Pre-Shipment Inspection) payment milestone is triggered when commodities pass final inspection before shipment and the PSI certificate is issued. This milestone typically releases 70-90% of the total contract value for commodity trades.
PSI clearance confirms that commodities meet quality specifications, quantity is correct, and goods are ready for export, providing buyers assurance before major payment release.
