Make clear agreements with your foreign customers!
Do you have to deal with the import or export of goods both within and outside the EU? Then it is already clear to you that this involves a lot of formalities and that clear agreements with your foreign customers and suppliers are not an unnecessary luxury.
The Incoterms® - the “International Commercial Terms” - have been created for this purpose: the international terms of delivery. These describe all responsibilities, risks and costs associated with goods transactions worldwide. These rules are updated every 10 years. That is why we have been talking about the Incoterms® 2020 for two years now. Does this mean that new Incoterms® have been added? Have a number of existing Incoterms® been given a new interpretation? And which incoterm can you continue to use in the context of Brexit? Is Ex Works the ideal solution?
In addition to insight into all changes, this training also gives you a practical basic training on Incoterms®.
