What are Incoterms® rules and why are they important?
Incoterms ® (International Commercial Terms) are official international rules and terms that govern the legal and economic relationships between buyers and sellers in international trade regarding the transfer of risk and costs during the delivery of goods from one party to another.
They explain a series of eleven commonly used trade terms, each consisting of three letters (CIF, FOB, etc.), reflecting practices in goods sales contracts.
Rules Incoterms® are not a substitute for a sales contract by themselves. They describe obligations who does what between the seller and the buyer, such as who arranges transport or who obtains shipping documents, export or import licenses, etc. They also describe where and when the seller "delivers" the goods, i.e., where The risk transfers from the seller to the buyer and, ultimately, which party is responsible for what expenses As of January 1, 2020, new rules came into effect Incoterms® 2020which replace the previous Incoterms® 2010. International Chamber of Commerce The revision introduced changes to the previous Incoterms® 2010 rules. The ICC adapted the updates to modern trade practices. Changes in Incoterms® 2020 changes compared to the Incoterms® 2010 edition are:
- FCA (Free Carrier) now allows the bill of lading to be issued after loading.
- DAT (Delivered at Terminal) has been changed to Delivered at Place Unloaded (DPU).
- The allocation of costs between the buyer and seller is now specified more precisely. The goal was to provide users with a single list showing all costs for which both the seller and buyer are responsible.
- CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight) and CIP (Carriage and Insurance Paid To) define new standard insurance contracts. The level of insurance remains subject to negotiation between the buyer and seller. CIP now requires coverage of ICC A or its equivalent, which was ICC C under Incoterms® 2010. For CIF, the required insurance coverage remains unchanged.
- FCA (Free Carrier), DAP (Delivered at Place), DPU (Delivered at Place Unloaded), and DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) now take into account the organization of transport by the buyer and seller instead of involving a third party.
- Obligations related to safety are now given a more prominent place compared to the Incoterms® 2010 edition.
- Notes with explanations for users for each Incoterms® are designed to be clearer and simpler for users to understand.
About the rules Incoterms® 2020 you can read more on the official web sites International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) .
Why insure your shipments?
The safety of your shipment is one of P2P Logistics' top priorities, which is why we handle each of your shipments with the utmost care.
Regardless of all safety measures during handling and the transport process, there is always a certain risk of damage.
Since carrier liability is limited and conventions, as well as international and national laws governing transport contracts, exclude or limit the amount of compensation claims, arranging additional insurance provides you with a higher level of security.
At P2P, we offer our clients competitive premium rates tailored to their individual needs.
If you need additional advice on how to make your shipments travel more safely from point to point, contact us at P2P Logistics.

REEFER
This type of container has made the transport of cargo such as meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruit, as well as films, plants, and pharmaceuticals easier and safer.
Thanks to advanced computer-controlled temperature adjustment capabilities, the quality of your cargo is preserved with high precision. This type of container can maintain the temperature of frozen, refrigerated, or goods that require slightly higher temperature settings.
Refrigeration units are built into the containers, and power is provided by a motor generator whether the container is on a truck, grounded at the terminal, or on a ship.
Each refrigeration unit includes adjustable ventilation openings that allow for the exchange of fresh air, preventing the buildup of carbon dioxide inside the container.
All fruits and vegetables generate heat and carbon dioxide, and these ventilation openings allow the expulsion of toxic air, thus preventing spoilage of your cargo.
The dimensions below are for reference and may vary from ship to ship.
