Before reading this article, I suggest my readers to go through all other articles related to triangular trade which make you more clear about the procedures and formalities of triangle trade.
In a triangular exports and imports, if A obtains order from B and transfers export order to C who is final supplier, the terms of contract between parties each other can be explained below with two levels.
Level 1. Transactions between A & B
Level 2. Transactions between A & C
In the example level 1 above, A acts as seller of goods and B acts as buyer of goods. A delivers goods to B by sourcing goods from C. On maturity of payment agreement each other between A and B at the time of placing order, B pays the agreed amount to A against his invoices. In other words, the foreign exchange is transferred from B’s country to A’s country.

In the example level 2 above, A acts as a buyer of goods and C as seller. C ships goods to B’s place, but invoice to A. On maturity date of agreement on payment between A and C, C receives payment from A as per their agreed terms. In this case, the foreign exchange is transferred from A’s country to C’s country.
