International rules and organizations Incoterms 2000 [iNKOTERMS 2000] Term D Duty free delivery - DDU
|
DDU(Delivered Duty Unpaid (... named place of destination))
Delivery free of duty (... named place of destination)
The term "Delivered Duty Free" means that the seller delivers the goods, uncleared and unloaded from the arriving means of transport, at the disposal of the buyer at the named place of destination. The seller must bear all costs and risks associated with transporting the goods to this place, with the exception (if necessary) of any fees collected for importation in the country of destination (the word "fees" here means the responsibility and risks for carrying out customs clearance, as well as for payment of customs formalities, customs duties, taxes and other fees). Such fees must be the responsibility of the buyer, as well as other costs and risks incurred due to the fact that he was unable to clear customs for import in time.
However, if the parties wish the seller to bear the risks and costs of customs clearance, as well as part of the costs of importing the goods, then this should be clearly stated in the appropriate addendum to the contract of sale.
Responsibility, risks and costs for unloading and reloading the goods depend on who controls the chosen place of delivery.
This term can be used regardless of the mode of transport, but when the delivery is made on board a ship or at a quay in the port of destination, the terms DES or DEQ should be used.
