Effective January 1, 2020: This will impact on all shipment of your import and export!

INCOTERMS refer to international commercial terminologies used by traders, importers, exporters, customs brokers, logistics companies, non-life insurers, bankers in the shipment of goods via land, air, and sea. Embedded in these terminologies are the trade rules that clearly define the seller’s and buyer’s obligations as part of a contract.

The new set of INCOTERMS took effect worldwide on January 1, 2020! These changes will have a tremendous impact on the trade documentation and will have critical implications on your businesses. Understanding these new rules and incorporating their use in sales contracts eliminate the uncertainties, errors and costly mistakes in the interpretations created in trade transactions.

To educate the different stakeholders on this, the Center for Global Best Practices, in collaboration with the International Chamber of Commerce, is hosting a training program entitled "INCOTERMS 2020: Revised International Rules on the Interpretation of Trade Terms" to be held on the following schedules:
