INCO Definitions
EXW (Ex Works)
Ex means from. Works means factory, mill or warehouse, which is the seller's premises. EXW applies to goods available only at the seller's premises. Buyer is responsible for loading the
goods on truck or container at the seller's premises, and for the subsequent costs and risks.
In practice, it is not uncommon that the seller loads the goods on truck or container at the seller's premises without charging loading fee.
In the quotation, indicate the named place (seller's premises) after the acronym EXW, for example EXW Kobe and EXW San Antonio.
The term EXW is commonly used between the manufacturer (seller) and export-trader (buyer), and the export-trader resells on other trade terms to the foreign buyers.
Some manufacturers may use the term Ex Factory, which means the same as Ex Works.

CRF (Cost & Freight - Formerly C&F)
The delivery of goods to the named port of destination (discharge) at the seller's expense. Buyer is responsible for the cargo insurance and other costs and risks. The term CFR was formerly written as C&F. Many importers and exporters worldwide still use the term C&F.
In the export quotation, indicate the port of destination (discharge) after the acronym CFR, for example CFR Karachi and CFR Alexandria.
Under the rules of the INCOTERMS 1990, the term Cost and Freight is used for ocean freight only. However, in practice, the term Cost and Freight (C&F) is still commonly used in the air freight.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CIF (Cost, Insurance & Freight)
The cargo insurance and delivery of goods to the named port of destination (discharge) at the seller's expense. Buyer is responsible for the import customs clearance and other costs and risks.
In the export quotation, indicate the port of destination (discharge) after the acronym CIF, for example CIF Pusan and CIF Singapore.

- Question - Shipping - Can you arrange shipping
Answer - Yes, we can arrange shipping for customers.
Goods generally go RORO (Roll On Roll Off) or by container depending on the size of the shipment.
RORO is generally the cheaper option.
We can also arrange for insurance if the customer requires it.
We also advise on the export licensing protocols for orders involving Ex. Military equipment. (see Exports FAQ's above)

- Question - Shipping - What are Incoterms
Answer - The Incoterms rules or International Commercial terms are a series of pre-defined commercial terms published by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC)
widely used in international commercial transactions.
A series of three-letter trade terms related to common sales practices, the Incoterms rules are intended primarily to clearly communicate
the tasks, costs and risks associated with the transportation and delivery of goods.
The Incoterms rules are accepted by governments, legal authorities and practitioners worldwide for the interpretation of most commonly used terms in international trade.
They are intended to reduce or remove altogether uncertainties arising from different interpretation of the rules in different countries.
First published in 1936, the Incoterms rules have been periodically updated, with the eighth version—Incoterms 2010—having been published on January 1, 2011
