INCOTERMS Introduction
Trade Terms are key elements of international contracts of sale. They tell the parties what to do with respect to carriage of the goods from buyer to seller, and export & import clearance. They also explain the division of costs and risks between the parties. It is highly recommended that Sellers and Buyers understand the meaning of the shipping terms.

INCOTERMS/ EXW, FCA, FOB The most common are:
EXW – EX WORKS
The seller places the goods at the disposal of the buyer. Normally all costs occurring from the sellers loading platform are for the account of the buyer, who is responsible for selecting the carrier, mode of transport, carriage, insurance, export and import clearance and all other risks and costs, after the goods have crossed the exporters dock. Read article on Selling Ex Works: Link to Selling Ex Works Article
FCA -FREE CARRIER (…NAMED PLACE):
The seller delivers the goods, cleared for export, to the carrier nominated by the buyer at the named place and assumes the cost. Normally, the named place is a port, terminal or hub .
-
-
FOB- FREE ON BOARD (…NAMED PLACE)
The goods are delivered by the seller to the port or airport . All fees and risks up to the point of passing the ship’s rail, or on board any other conveyance is for the exporter including export clearance, port/terminal/airline fees, security, Advance manifesting, documentation, packing, and carriage to the named place. The term FOB is not sensible if there is no named place. Again, it’s recommended that a port/airport/inland terminal or hub is this named place.

INCOTERMS – CIF/CFR/CPT Second Review Business Analysts
CIF – COST, INSURANCE AND FREIGHT (…NAMED PLACE/PORT) Transfer of risk and costs are when the seller ensure the goods are passing the ship’s rail (for sea freight) or cross the unloading point at the airport/terminal at destination. The seller pays and is responsible for all costs, export clearance, carrier selection, documentation, freight and surcharges to the named place, but does not assume responsibility for arrival charges, or any other fee after the cargo has touched ground at the named place. Insurance is part of the sellers obligation, and they are required to have the appropriate cargo policy in place. CFR – COST AND FREIGHT (..NAMED PLACE /PORT) Transfer of risk and costs are when the seller ensure the goods are passing the ship’s rail (for sea freight) or cross the unloading point at the airport/terminal at destination. The seller pays and is responsible for all costs, export clearance, carrier selection, documentation, freight and surcharges to the named place, but does not assume responsibility for arrival charges, or any other fee after the cargo has touched ground at the named place. Insurance is NOT part of the sellers obligation. CPT - CARRIAGE PAID TO (…NAMED PLACE/PORT) The seller has only to ensure that the goods are delivered to the name place. The Risks and costs are of course for the seller as is the responsibility for the export clearance up to that named place. In some cases, this is debatable dependant on the agreement between the two parties. The buyer therefore assumes all costs and responsibility for documentation, port fees, security, manifesting from that place onwards. Sept.15 2009

INCOTERMS – DDU, DDP Second Review Business Analysts
DDU –DELIVERED DUTY UNPAID The seller delivers the goods to the buyer, not cleared for import, and not unloaded from arriving means of transport at the named place of destination. The seller bears all costs and risks involved in bringing the goods to the named place other than “duty” (which includes the responsibility for customs formalities and payment of those formalities, duties and taxes) for import into the country of destination. The buyer is responsible for payment of all customs, duties and taxes.
DDP – DELIVERED DUTY PAID
• •
Use this term when there is maximum obligation to the seller, however if the seller is unable to obtain the import license, DDP would not be appropriate since the seller would be unable to carry out their obligation. Similar to DDU except that the seller also will bear all costs and risks and responsibilities of carrying out customs formalities, the payment of duties, and customs fees. Value added taxes, such as the European VAT and Canadian GST would still be for the account of the buyer, unless the seller elects to pay for these upfront and includes these taxes in their cost price. The buyer in this case does not want involvement in the carriage and/or Customs clearance at destination. Link to Selling DDP to Canada
