6-9-1- Summary

The exporter chooses the carrier and pays the freight up until arrival at the named place. Upon delivery to the first carrier, the importer is responsible for damage and loss, as well as potential cost increases. The transfer of risks and costs does not occur at the same place. The exporter must clear the goods for export. We advise use of this Incoterms © if goods are transported by air or using containers, as with the CIP Incoterms ©.
