Top errors by exporters in the use of incoterms

• Using a sea freight term like FOB or CIF when consigning goods by air freight or road;
• Doing more under the term than required, e.g. loading under "ExWorks";
• Not including all the relevant costs covered by the Incoterm.
• Not protected when things go wrong because the "term" quoted has never been reviewed against the legal issues.

Top errors by importers in the use of incoterms:

• Failure to realise the best option for them, i.e. an unreliable supplier can be controlled under "ExWorks" or "FCA..." terms;
• Ambiguous "delivery points", e.g. CFR mentioned but the port not named;
• Missing the opportunity to assess what the supplier has included in the transportation price by asking for an "ExWorks" price to compare with a DDU (delivered) price.
• Unaware that the transit risk is theirs (the buyer's) under CIF and CIP.
