Incoterms
Incoterms, or International Commercial Terms, are standardized rules that outline the responsibilities and obligations of buyers and sellers in global trade. They are particularly important in ocean freight, as they determine how costs, risks, and responsibilities are allocated between parties. Incoterms provide guidelines for delivery, insurance, customs clearance, and other critical aspects of shipping. Well-known Incoterms in ocean freight include FOB, CIF, and EXW. By establishing a shared understanding of rights and obligations, these terms enhance clarity and facilitate smoother international trade.
Neele-Vat provides comprehensive support to clients by offering expert guidance and assistance with navigating the complexities of Incoterms in the context of their international trade operations. Read more about Incoterms.
