Who pays freight? exporter? or reciever? |
I ordered some product from overseas (New Zealand to Japan.) And they are charging me full freight costs($400). Normally the exporter pays and the reciever pays for insurence and from the port of Destination to the store, right? So why are they charging me full price? I have imported many things into Japan and freight cost has never been over $170. They are a smaller company, and maybe their first time to export overseas. Is it because they dont know what they are doing? Who pays? What are my, and their obligations? Thanks for the help! Who pays freight, legal posession of the freight, time of posession transfer, and insurance, etc.....all of these depend on the specific terms of that specific shipment. You will have to find out which INCO terms the shipper used. Check out this web site for the full list and description of different INCO terms. http://www.iccwbo.org/incoterms/id3045/i... If you don't pay them feigth charge,the vendor must do"Freight Collected" it's a common sence. Next time you must mark the"Freight Prepaid"in the Contract. Usually it is cheaper than"Freight Collected" Do you need anything from China,pls contact me. |
