An agreed trade term needs a named location and clear supporting shipping instructions. The seller and buyer should understand the handover rather than assume the forwarder can decide the sale terms for them.

What to confirm

Check the official ICC guidance and align the transport quotation with the agreement.

Prepare these details

• Agreed rule, version and named place or port
• Buyer and seller responsibilities in the sale agreement
• Origin and destination tasks included in the freight quote
• Responsible contacts for documents and operational handovers

Plan the next step with FDD

Send the relevant details with your enquiry. FDD can review transport and cargo preparation options, confirm the information still needed, and explain the proposed scope before booking.
