FOB vs CIF — quick comparison
FOB (Free on Board): seller delivers on board the buyer’s vessel at the port of loading. Risk and cost pass to the buyer at the loading port. The buyer arranges and pays for sea freight and insurance. Typical for traders and buyers who control shipping.
CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight): seller delivers to the destination port and pays cost, insurance and freight to that port. Risk passes at the loading port; seller bears carriage and insurance cost to destination. Typical when you want delivery to your port with one point of contact.
We offer both FOB (Rotterdam / Fujairah / Houston) and CIF to your port. For full explanation, ship-to-ship and FAQ, see Logistics & FOB/CIF — Ship-to-Ship.
