Product Description
EXW, FCA, FAS, FOB, CFR, CIF, CPT, CIP, DAF, DES, DEQ, DDU, & DDP. Incoterms are the official rules for the worldwide interpretation of trade terms developed under the auspices of the International Chamber of Commerce, Paris, France. Incoterms are recognized by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law as the global standard for such interpretation.

Incoterms define the responsibilities of buyer and seller for delivery of goods under sales contracts. They are the authoritative text for determining how costs and risks are allocated to the parties. These terms are regularly incorporated into sales contracts worldwide and have become part of the daily language of trade.

Incoterms 2000,the first revision in ten years, contains the official ICC text of the thirteen trading terms. It takes into account the latest developments in commercial practice and modifies some the existing terms bringing them into line for use in the new millennium. Most sales contracts drafted after January 1, 2000, will make reference to this latest revision in the text of their contract.

Incoterms 2000 continues a 60-year tradition of the ICC and provides importers, exporters, lawyers, transporters, insurers and students in the international arena with a modern text reflecting the latest changes in the trading environment. This new edition contains a lively, updated format for ease-of-use and ease-of-reference.

Incoterms 2000 will be the definitive text for all those engaged in international trade and commerce in the 21st century.

This book is exactly what we wanted to order and found the book quite a bit less expensive on the Amazon web site as we ordered 10 each. I will always come back to Amazon site for such books and more!

Thank you,

5 out of 5 stars The Official Guide   November 9, 1999

This book may not be the most enjoyable you've ever read, but it is the offical guide put out by the ICC. It is broken down by Incoterm and into each category of obligation by the seller and buyer. This is the book that will be translated into multiple languages for everyone in the world to read. You really can't ask for more. However, if you are new to Incoterms, don't expect to understand it after going through it only once. It's still not an easy subject to grasp for new exporters/importers.

For American exporters/importers I would definately recommend reading a supplementary book put out specifically for Americans. Incoterms are partially written with European countries in mind, so there are important considerations for countries with borders and exports laws similar to the USA. The best supplimentary book I've seen so far is "Incoterms for Americans" by Frank Reynolds, the USA representative to the Incoterms 2000 revision meeting. The 2000 version may not be officially out yet. I got it at a seminar.


4 out of 5 stars Pretty good summary for a book written by a committee.   October 27, 1999

The subject of Incoterms is almost arcane in American jargon. The previous version was less readable even though the format was similar. I suggest that everyone trash their 1990 version and take advantage of the changes in format so that you can explain the meaning and impact of the Incoterms 2000 to your organization.
