Letter of Credit (LC) transactions play a vital role in facilitating international trade, but are vulnerable to various forms of fraud such as forgery of documents and manipulation of information. In the banking context, ensuring the security of LC transactions is an urgent challenge.

The population in this research are customers who use Letter of Credit transactions. The sampling technique in this research is purposive sampling so that in this research the research sample was 100 customers who used letter of credit transactions. The data analysis technique in this research uses Partial Least Square (PLS). The research results show that blockchain technology has great potential to increase the security of LC transactions through aspects such as high data security, transparency and auditability, as well as automation through smart contracts. With proper implementation, blockchain technology can help reduce the risk of fraud, increase operational efficiency, and build trust in international trade.
