Article L512-7 of the French Commercial code

Promissory notes payable at a certain sight period must be presented for the underwriter’s visa within the time limits set out in article L. 511-15. The sight period runs from the date of the underwriter’s signed visa on the Note. Refusal by the underwriter to give his dated endorsement is recorded by a protest, the date of which serves as the starting point for the sight period.
