Does RELAB Quote FOB or EXW price?

Yes, besides FOB and EXW, RELAB also quotes DAP, CIF and so on. When quoting our spray nozzles, RELAB often provides an Ex-works price for reference, if a customer needs to deliver the goods to door, we will estimate the shipping cost based on gross weight, dimension and delivery address, then plug few customs declaration fees and little insurance without customs clearance fees and duties for customers, so it will be a DAP price.

As EXW and FOB are the most common international commercial terms, Personally, when we ask for initial quotes from manufacturers in our RFQ’s, We request them to quote prices in EXW and FOB. We want to know the EXW price as that is the price of just the product by itself, and the FOB to gauge the shipping prices.

Incoterms® are referred to as International Commercial Terms. All International purchases will be processed on an agreed Incoterm® to define which party legally incurs costs and risks.

EXW – Ex-Works or Ex-Warehouse

Ex works is when the seller places the goods at the disposal of the buyer at the seller’s premises or at another named place (i.e., works, factory, warehouse, etc.).
The seller does not need to load the goods on any collecting vehicle. Nor does it need to clear them for export, where such clearance is applicable.

FCA – Free Carrier

The seller delivers the goods to the carrier or another person nominated by the buyer at the seller’s premises or another named place.
The parties are well advised to specify as explicitly as possible the point within the named place of delivery, as the risk passes to the buyer at that point.

CPT – Carriage Paid To

The seller delivers the goods to the carrier or another person nominated by the seller at an agreed place (if any such site is agreed between parties).
The seller must contract for and pay the costs of carriage necessary to bring the goods to the named place of destination.

CIP – Carriage And Insurance Paid To

The seller has the same responsibilities as CPT, but they also contract for insurance cover against the buyer’s risk of loss of or damage to the goods during the carriage.
The buyer should note that under CIP the seller is required to obtain insurance only on minimum cover. Should the buyer wish to have more insurance protection, it will need either to agree as much expressly with the seller or to make its own extra insurance arrangements.

DAP – Delivered At Place

The seller delivers when the goods are placed at the disposal of the buyer on the arriving means of transport ready for unloading at the named place of destination.
The seller bears all risks involved in bringing the goods to the named place.
