有关国际贸易指南(2)

　　Organization of Incoterms

　　Incoterms are grouped into four categories:

　　1. The “E” term (EXW) – The only term where the seller/exporter makes the goods available at his or her own premises7 to the buyer/importer.

　　2. The “F” terms (FCA, FAS, and FOB) – Terms where the seller/ exporter is responsible to deliver the goods to a carrier named by the buyer.

　　3. The “C” terms (CFR, CIF, CPT and CIP) – Terms where the seller/exporter/manufacturer is responsible for contracting and paying for carriage of the goods, but not responsible for additional costs or risk of loss or damages to the goods once they have been shipped. C terms evidence “shipment” (as opposed to “arrival”) contracts.

　　4. The “D” terms (DAF, DES, DEQ, DDU and DDP) – Terms whrer the seller/exporter/manufacturer is responsible for all costs and risks associated with bringing the goods to the place of destination. D terms evidence “arrival” contracts.

　　国际贸易术语解释通则的结构

　　国际贸易术语解释通则分为四大类型：

　　1. E组术语(EXW)— 唯一的卖方/出口商在其场所将货物交付买方/进口商的术语。

　　2. F组术语(FCA、FAS、和 FOB)—卖方/出口商负责将货物交付买方指定承运人的术语。

　　3. C组术语(CFR、CIF、CPT和 CIP)—卖方/出口商/制造商负责订立运输合同并支付运费，但不负责装船后的额外费用、损失风险和货物损坏。C组术语用于表明“装运”(而不是“到达”)合同。

　　4. D组术语(DAF、DES、DEQ、DDU、和DDP)—卖方/出口商/制造商负责将货物运抵目的地的所有费用和风险。C组术语用于表明“到达”合同。

　　Mode of transport

　　Not all Incoterms are appropriate for all modes of transport. Some terms were designed with sea vessels8 in mind while others were designed to be applicable to all modes. The following table set out which terms appropriate for each mode of transport.

　　运输方式

　　不是所有的国际贸易属于都适合所有的运输方式。某些术语在设计时就是准备用于海轮运输，而有些术语设计时是准备用于所有运输方式。下表列出了每种运输方式适用的贸易术语[略]。
