Incoterms\u00ae<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n

Definition<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Incoterms\u00ae are international commercial rules developed by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) that define the allocation of responsibilities, costs, and risks between sellers and buyers in international transactions.<\/p>\n\n

The Incoterms\u00ae rules specify, among other things, who arranges and pays for transportation, who is responsible for export and import formalities, and at what point the risk associated with the goods transfers from the seller to the buyer.<\/p>\n\n

They do not, however, determine matters such as the price of the goods, payment method, or the point at which ownership of the goods is transferred.<\/p>\n\n

Why Should Importers Know This?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Understanding Incoterms\u00ae is one of the foundations of safe importing. The choice of a particular rule can have a significant impact on the total cost of an order, the importer's responsibilities, and the way transportation is organized.<\/p>\n\n

It is therefore not enough to know that a quotation is based on \u201cFOB\u201d or \u201cCIF\u201d. An importer should understand exactly which costs and risks are included under the selected rule.<\/p>\n\n

Related Terms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

FOB \u00b7 CIF \u00b7 EXW \u00b7 DDP \u00b7 FCA \u00b7 CFR \u00b7 Landed Cost \u00b7 Customs Clearance<\/p>\n\n

In Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Before accepting a quotation, it is important to ensure that the Incoterms\u00ae rule has been correctly specified together with a precise location or port, for example: FOB Shanghai, Incoterms\u00ae 2020.<\/p>\n\n

Before accepting a quotation or placing an order, make sure you fully understand the selected Incoterms\u00ae rule \u2013 it can directly affect the costs and risks associated with the entire import process.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
