The international trade environment has undergone dramatic changes during the past few years not only in terms of volume but in complexity as well. I would like to thank the professors who adopted this book as a textbook and also thank all the readers for adopting this book to study international trade practice. The main objective of this edition of this book is to present a comprehensive, up-to-date and clear explanation of IncotermsⓇ 2020 that entered into force on January 1, 2020. International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has launched IncotermsⓇ 2020 set that contains the rules for use of the 11 IncotermsⓇ trade rules. It takes into account the latest developments in commercial practice, and updates the rules to make them more accessible and easier to use. The characteristics of IncotermsⓇ 2020 can be summarized as follows; ▸The IncotermsⓇ FCA (Free Carrier) now provides the additional option to make an on-board notation on the Bill of Lading prior loading of the goods on a vessel. ▸The costs now appear centralized in A9/B9 of each IncotermsⓇ rule. ▸CIP now requires at least an insurance with the minimum cover of the Institute Cargo Clause (A) (All risk, subject to itemized exclusions). ▸CIF requires at least an insurance with the minimum cover of the Institute Cargo Clause (C) (Number of listed risks, subject to itemized exclusions).
▸The IncotermsⓇ rules Free Carrier (FCA), Delivered at Place (DAP), Delivered at Place Unloaded (DPU) and Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) now take into account that the goods may be carried without any third-party carrier being engaged, namely by using its own means of transportation. ▸The rule Delivered at Terminal (DAT) has been changed to Delivered at Place Unloaded (DPU) to clarify that the place of destination could be any place and not only a “terminal”. ▸The IncotermsⓇ 2020 now explicitly shifts the responsibility of security-related requirements and ancillary costs to the seller.
