    Sir,

    If UK company owes US firm, means a payment due.

    Options are quoted in $/Pound.

    Means the UK company will worry $ appreciate against Pound.

    So, UK company will buy the put option under the circumstances.

    If options are quoted in Pound/$, the UK company will buy the call option.

    Is my understanding correct?

    It depends on the currency in which the contract size is quoted.

    If the contract currency is $’s, then if you will be paying $’s you want a call option (because you want the right to buy $’s at a fixed rate). If you will be receiving $’s you want a put option (because you want the right to sell $’s at a fixed rate).
