Meaning of trade terms


The buyers and sellers of international trade are separated by two countries. They are far apart. In the process of seller's delivery and buyer's receiving, there are many issues involved, such as: Who should negotiate the transportation , Loading, unloading, payment of freight insurance, application for import and export permits and customs declaration and taxation; etc .; who pays for freight, loading and unloading, insurance, taxes, and other costs, and who can bear the goods that may occur during transportation Risk of damage and loss. If each transaction requires buyers and sellers to negotiate the above procedures, fees and risks item by item, it will consume a lot of time and costs and affect the conclusion of the transaction.
