Overview

What actually changes depending on the Incoterm: who pays what, who manages customs, and where unexpected costs tend to appear.

Quick Steps

  1. Gather the data: shipment reference, sender/recipient and approximate date.
  2. Identify the blocking point: documentation, customs, final delivery or incident.
  3. Activate the solution: prepare the documents or request help with a single, clear message.

Checklist (to avoid delays)

  • Commercial invoice with complete details (company/individual, tax ID, address).
  • Accurate description of the goods (material, use, quantity, value).
  • Agreed Incoterm (defines responsibilities and costs).
  • Packing list / packages (weight, dimensions, contents per package).

Frequently Asked Questions
