Outweighting the negatives with International shipping incoterms
Incoterms is not a philosophical
world. International shipping incoterms
is a set of rules that explain about the duties of both sellers and buyers. It
is specified that who is responsible to pay for the shipment, insurance,
documentation etc. EXW (Ex Works), Delivered Duty Paid (DDP), Free on Board (FOB), CIF, Free Alongside ship
(FAS)
Generally, 11 Incoterms are
used currently. These are internationally accepted definitions. FOB says that as soon as the
shipment of goods leaves the seller's warehouse, the seller calls its sale
complete thought the goods are in the midway of the shipping journey. There is
next type of FOB where the buyer collects the product in the route from the
warehouse. You just have to pay delivery charges. Be on time, the ship does not
stop for anyone. CIF defines cost, insurance and freight. Here, the seller is
responsible for delivering the good and get clearance for the export. He also
bears minimum insurance coverage. International shipping incoterms clarify all
business terms.
