"Water" is a common name in China. It was originally called "water" because of the fineness of silver. When the silver is insufficient, it should be replenished. This is called "slurry water". Is the document filled out by him afterwards a memorandum? Please consult your brother. At present, this term has been widely used in original documents that flow like water.
The word "memo" comes from Shanghai, because all foreign exchange used to go through waterways, so it is commonly known as memo and has been used ever since.
In the past, due to the underdeveloped information technology, foreign exchange transactions between China and other countries had to be transported by water, so it was called "water bill" and has continued to this day. A water bill is a general term for foreign exchange receipts, which is a process of changing water and foreign currency in different places.
There are two ways to call a foreign exchange transaction receipt a memo:
1 The correct name of the foreign exchange trading receipt is export settlement confirmation, and it is called a memorandum because the bank will compile the serial number of the contract.
In international trade, if the transaction currencies are all foreign currencies, the foreign exchange transaction receipt is called a transaction voucher; in international trade, if there is NT$ in the transaction currency, the foreign exchange transaction receipt is called a memo; Its name is formulated by the central bank.
The so-called memo is the receipt of foreign exchange settlement and sale.
The origin of the memorandum is the early foreign exchange control, and black market transactions are rampant.
Most foreign exchange transactions are completed on the black market, and the receipts of foreign exchange transactions are developed on the black market.
1. Memo is the receipt for purchasing the draft.
2. Foreign exchange refers to the means of payment expressed in foreign currency that can be used for international settlement, including foreign currency (banknotes, coins, etc.). ), foreign currency securities (government bonds, government bonds, corporate bonds, stocks, coupons, etc. ), foreign currency payment vouchers (bills, bank deposit vouchers, postal savings vouchers, etc.). ) and other foreign exchange funds.
For example, there is no limit on the amount of foreign currency and bills brought into the country by overseas tourists, but they must declare them truthfully when entering the country; In China, tourists can exchange foreign currency into RMB at China Bank and exchange points, but they should keep the foreign exchange certificate (commonly known as the memo) issued by the bank, which is valid for half a year.
