Incoterms

What are Incoterms®?

Put simply, Incoterms® are the selling terms that the seller and buyer of goods both agree to during international transactions. These rules are accepted by governments and legal authorities around the world. Understanding Incoterms® is a vital part of International Trade because these trade terms clearly state which tasks, costs, risks, and the delivery of goods are associated with the buyer and the seller in the contract of sale.

The Incoterm® states when the seller’s costs and risks are transferred from the seller to the buyer. It’s also important to understand that not all rules apply in all cases. Some encompass any mode or modes of transport. Transport by all modes of transport (road, rail, air, and sea) covers FCA, CPT, CIP, DAP, DPU (replaces DAT), and DDP. Sea and Inland Waterway Transport specifically covers FAS, FOB, CFR, and CIF, which we explain below.

Why are Incoterms® vital in International Trade?

Incoterms® are referred to as International Commercial Terms. They are a set of rules published by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), which relate to International Commercial Law. According to the ICC, Incoterms® rules provide internationally accepted definitions and rules of interpretation for most common commercial terms used in contracts for the sale of goods’.

All International purchases will be processed on an agreed Incoterm to define which party legally incurs costs and risks. Incoterms® will be clearly stated on relevant shipping documents.
