All rights reserved. International Commerce Terms In 1936, the International Chamber of Commerce developed the International Commerce Terms (or Incoterms) that formalize these responsibilities. Incoterms were revised in 1953, 1967, 1980, and 1990. The latest version of Incoterms is dated 2000. A new set is due to be implemented in 2011. For each international sale, it is important to determine, who — the exporter or the importer — is responsible for: Domestic transportation in the exporting country International transportation Domestic transportation in the importing country The risks involved in international transportation Customs clearance in the importing country

Understanding Incoterms Incoterms formally define the following aspects of an international sale: Which tasks will be performed by the exporter Which tasks will be performed by the importer Which activities will be paid by the exporter Which activities will be paid by the importer When the transfer of responsibilities takes place There are 13 different Incoterms, all abbreviated with a 3-letter acronym, such as EXW, DEQ, FOB, and so on.

5 International Logistics: The Management of International Trade Operations Ch. 6: Terms of Trade or Incoterms © 2011 Cengage Learning. Atomic Dog is a trademark used herein under license.

The following factors are particularly important: The type of product being sold (weight, volume, perishability, value, sensitivity to temperature changes, and so on) The method of shipment The ability and willingness of either of the exporter and importer to perform the tasks involved The amount of trust placed by either of the parties toward the other

All rights reserved. Electronic Data Interchange For a number of Incoterms, there is no transport document that is issued at the point where the responsibility shifts from the exporter to the importer (for example, a Bill of Lading). Electronic Data Interchange has attempted to solve this problem. Whenever there is no transport document possible, the exporter can still send an EDI “notice” to the importer, which acts as a proof of delivery for both parties. The exporter has a record of the notification sent, and the importer knows unambiguously when the goods were delivered to the quay or when they arrived in port.

All rights reserved. Common Errors in Incoterm Usage Domestic Terms as International Terms of Trade An inexperienced exporter will use “FOB factory” rather than the correct corresponding Ex-Works (EXW) Incoterm. Confusion with Older Incoterm Versions The International Chamber of Commerce modified the Incoterms in 1980, 1990, and 2000. It eliminated some Incoterms, modified others and created some new ones. For a number of reasons, several exporters have failed to adapt to these changes, and will use an obsolete Incoterm.

All rights reserved. Common Errors in Incoterm Usage Improper Use of Correct Incoterms Incoterms are sometimes specific to certain modes of transportation and types of cargo, and cannot be used for others. The most frequent misuse is when FOB is used with an air shipment: FOB is designed to be used only with an ocean shipment term. The correct Incoterm to use for an air shipment should be Free Carrier (FCA), to clearly outline the responsibilities of the exporter and of the importer.

All rights reserved. Incoterms as a Marketing Tool A strategic advantage can be gained by an exporter willing to facilitate the sale of its products by assisting a novice importer in the handling of a shipment. On the other hand, an experienced importer may be intent on performing all or most of the tasks involved in the shipment. Most exporters would gain by being flexible, offering a quote where they list several possible Incoterms: EXW Cleveland, Ohio, USA$ 245,000 FOB Miami, Florida, USA$ 258,000 CIF Santos, Brazil$ 285,000 and let the importer decide which Incoterm it would rather use.
