2、ually embody special price terms which are not customary in the home trade. The most common of these terms are the f.o.b and c.i.f., but there are others which likewise call for attention.These terms have been developed by international mercantile custom and have simplified , to a certain extent, st

They are , however, sometimes interpreted differently in various countries and their meaning may be modified by agreement of the parties, the custom of a particular trade or the usage prevailing in a parti

4、cular port. F.A.S (Named Vessel in the Port of Shipment)Under the term f.a.s. (free alongside ship), the sellers responsibility and risk in respect of the goods is discharged when they are carried alongside the ship so that they can be placed on board either in the ships tackle, or by a shore-c

He undertakes to place the goods on board a ship that is berthed at the agreed port of shipment. All charges incurred up to and including the delivery of the goods over the ships rai

9、l have to be borne by the seller while the buyer has to pay all subsequent charges, such as the stowage of the goods on board ship, freight, marine insurance as well as unloading charges,import duties and other incidental charges dur on arrival of the consignment in the port of destination.When good

10、s are sold on f.o.b. terms, it is usually the duty of the buyer to arrange the freight and marine insurance cover, and these expenses have to be borne by the buyer.Where the f.o.b seller, upon request by the buyer, undertakes to ship and insure the goods sold, he would generally make out tow invoice

11、s, one invoice showing the f.o.b. values of the goods including all expenses up to the delivery of the goods over the ships rail, and another invoice showing the additional services which he has performed , and in particular the costs of prepaid freight and marine insurance and any commission which

12、might be due to him.Under the f.o.b. term the risk with respect to the consignment passes from the seller to the buyer when the goods are shipped; normally this means when they are delivered over the ships rail.In the case that an export licence may be required, normally the parties agree expressly

13、or by implication that such export licence shall be procured by the seller.

15、hich the custom of the merchants has evolved.The term c.i.f.(cost, insurance,freight) is a type of contract which is more widely and more frequently in use than any other contract used for purposes of sea-borne commerce. An enormous number of transactions, in value amounting to untold sums , is carr

16、ied out every year under c.i.f. contracts.The c.i.f. transaction embodies elements of three contracts, viz. the contract of sale, the contract of carriage by sea and the contract of insurance.The sellers obligations under c.i.f. contract have been defined as follows:1.     &

17、#160; To ship at the port of shipment goods of the description contained in the contract.2.       To procure a contact under which the goods will be delivered at the destination contemptaed by the contract.3.       To arrange

19、um(保險(xiǎn)費(fèi)).5.       To tender the relative documents to the buyer to enable him to obtain delivery of the goods, if they arrive, or recover for their loss if they are lost on the voyage. Under the c.i.f. term, the sellers responsibility for the goods ends when he

22、n）The term c. and f. stands for cost and freight. Under this price term the seller has to arrange the carriage of the goods to the named foreign port of destination at his expense but not at his risk (which ceases when he places the goods on board ship at the place of shipment), but he has not to ar

23、range marine insurance which is the concern of the buyer and , if effected, has to be paid by him. In this respect it differs from the ordinary c.i.f. contract, but in all other respects the liablilities and duties of the parties are the same as under a contract of c.i.f. Notes:1.  &#
