Warehouse delivery in China

Delivery terms
Five ways to take delivery
The only real question at the start of a shipment is how far you want someone else to carry it. These five answers cover almost every importer we work with.
FOB — Free On Board
Loaded on board, released to your consignee
We deliver the goods on board the vessel for the destination you specify, released to the consignee you name.
CF — Cost and Freight
Purchase and freight together, without insurance
The cost of the goods and the freight are billed to you as one arrangement. The cargo travels without insurance cover.
CIF — Cost, Insurance and Freight
The same as CF, with the cargo covered
The cost of the goods, the freight and the cargo insurance are all billed to you, so a loss in transit is covered rather than argued about.
DtD — Door to Door
All the way to the address you give us
We carry the goods through to the final address you nominate. Nothing at the destination is left for you to arrange.
Have a shipment in mind?
Send the goods, the destination and the term you want. You get a written price for that term, or an honest answer that it is not the right one.
