The parties to the sale should agree the FOB named port and coordinate cargo availability with the booked carriage. A freight enquiry must make the origin handover clear.

What to confirm

Confirm the supplier's scope and the buyer's booking responsibilities before arranging collection.

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
