Incoterms
Incoterms® 2020 Course
Incoterms® are a set of rules which define the responsibilities and obligations of international sellers and buyers for the delivery of goods under sales contracts. Incoterms® are published by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) and are widely used in international commercial transactions. Incoterms® is short for International Commercial Terms. Incorrect use of Incoterms® may cause delays and additional costs if not understood. Certain rules will determine who is responsible for transportation, insurance, reporting the transaction to customs and much more. See infographic of the history of Incoterms® by clicking here.
Does your staff understand the “terms of sale” of your international transactions? It is critical to comprehend the seller and buyer’s rights and obligations with respect to the shipping or transportation of goods. Incoterms® may be used for both international and domestic transactions. Take our new Incoterms 2020 course to understand who is responsible for insurance and when transfer of risk moves from the Seller to the Buyer. Learn the different meaning between domestic and international terms. New Incoterms 2020 is one of our most popular courses! See Schedule ->
