Days of Grace

The number of days a seller may allow a buyer to go beyond the discount period that appears on the invoice, but still allow the buyer to take the payment discount; also, the acceptor of a draft may go past due before being judged in default and triggering any guarantor to pay on the acceptors behalf. When an avalized draft is sold to a forfaiter, the forfaiter will impute the days of grace into the financing period.
