Common Questions in Partnership

How to correctly state Incoterms in our initial cooperation?

Always specify the named place or port and rule version, e.g., 'FCA Ningbo Yard, Incoterms® 2020'. A three-letter term alone is incomplete.

Who handles export and import customs clearance during cooperation?

Under FCA, FOB, and CIF, CARtechCarWorld handles Chinese export customs. The buyer is responsible for import customs, duties, and local taxes at destination.

Who bears transport risk under a CIF cooperation agreement?

Under CIF, CARtechCarWorld arranges ocean freight and basic insurance, but transport risk transfers to the buyer upon loading at the origin port.

How do we select the most suitable cooperation structure?

It depends on your preference for managing shipping, freight costs, and insurance. CARtechCarWorld will evaluate and suggest the best setup after initial discussion.
