A shipment that clears customs smoothly in one country might face delays or additional costs in another. • Unexpected Fees: Beyond shipping costs, retailers often encounter hidden charges like port fees, handling charges, and customs duties. • Documentation Dilemmas: Missing or incorrect paperwork can lead to shipments being held up or even returned. • Language Barriers: Misunderstandings due to language differences can cause errors in documentation and communication. • Regulatory Changes: Laws and regulations can change unexpectedly, leaving retailers scrambling to adapt. www.deepgreen.hk

  4. Page 04 FOB Shipping: Your Key to Control and Clarity • FOB (Free on Board) shipping terms define the point at which responsibility for goods transfers from the seller to the buyer. For retailers, understanding FOB is essential to manage risks and costs effectively. www.deepgreen.hk

  5. Page 05 • FOB Origin: The buyer assumes responsibility once goods leave the seller's premises. • FOB Destination: The seller retains responsibility until goods reach the buyer's location. • Cost Implications: FOB Origin can offer cost savings but requires more management; FOB Destination provides convenience but may be pricier. • Risk Management: FOB Origin places risk on the buyer earlier; FOB Destination delays risk transfer. • Control Over Shipping: FOB Origin allows buyers to choose carriers and routes; FOB Destination means the seller makes these decisions. www.deepgreen.hk
