What are the common trading methods of international freight?

Generally speaking, foreign customers have designated freight forwarders, and it is only necessary for the shipper to arrange trailers and customs declaration at the port of departure. There is also EXW ex-factory price, which can be delivered directly at the factory or at the place designated by the customer. The customs declaration of the trailer is arranged by the customer, and the customer picks up the goods himself and the factory delivers the goods.

2. Cost plus insurance plus freight.

Generally speaking, door-to-door (including trailer at loading port+customs declaration+sea freight) does not include insurance, and the insurance required by customers is calculated according to the value of goods. CIP terms can also be used, but CIF is generally only used for shipping. CIP is suitable for various modes of transport, including multimodal transport, such as air transport.

3.DDU double clear duty-free delivery

DDP is delivered duty paid (including tax), which is usually understood as door to door. It is often said that the double clearing is a one-stop train, including the trailer at the port of departure+customs declaration+sea transportation+customs clearance at the destination port. Whether door-to-door delivery is necessary depends mainly on the needs of customers. It should be noted that DDP must provide the value of goods, because tax payment is based on the value of goods.
