+Incoterms

+international transactions to define the rights and responsibilities of buyers and sellers. They
+establish the obligations related to the delivery of goods, the transfer of risks, and the
+distribution of costs between the parties involved. Incoterms specify important details, such as the
+point at which the risk and costs transfer from the seller to the buyer, the responsibility for
+transportation, insurance, customs clearance, and other relevant aspects of the transaction.
