摘    要
      信用证在现代国际贸易中一直是最重要的支付方式。为了明确信用证制度中各方当事人法律关系以及责任归属，鼓励更多的人参与到信用证业务中来，我们有必要对信用证与其基础合同的关系有一个明确的了解。
本文对信用证与其基础合同之间的关系展开详细的阐述。首先讨论了信用证与其基础合同间的联系，指出信用证是依基础合同成立的，并指出信用证虽然依基础合同成立但独立于基础合同，即信用证独立性原则。信用证独立性原则是信用证制度的基石，它最重要的作用就是确立了银行独立的付款责任。在文章的第二、三部分是文章的重点，详细分析了信用证的独立性原则及其价值。第四部分简单说明了对独立性原则构成补充完善的信用证欺诈例外原则。最后分析了信用证可能会对基础合同造成的影响。

Abstract
The means of payment of the letter of credit is the most important mean of payment in modern international trade. In order to define the legal relations and liabilities among every part in the L/C system, and encourage more and more people to take part in the L/C operation, we must have a clear understanding of the relationship between the L/C and the basic contract.
This thesis expatiates the relationship between the L/C and the basic contract. At first, the thesis discusses the connection of the L/C and contract, pointing out that the L/C is based on the sales contract. The thesis explains although L/C is based on the basic contract it is independent from the contract----Independent Principles which is the sill of L/C payment. The second and third part is the emphasis of this thesis, in which the letter of credit’s independence principle and the value of this principle are analyzed in details. The fourth part illustrates the doctrine of Exception of Credit Fraud. At last the thesis analyzes how the L/C affects the basic contract.
