Replying to [int786]:Hello! The terms of "C" includes CFR, CIF, CPT, CIP. CFR means cost and freight (the name of the POD).According to the term, a seller must charter a vessel and pay the freight. the seller' s responsibility is ended as the the goods are passed over the ship's rail. In order to know more about CFR I'd like to share some information as the following: The differences between CFR and CIF is that the seller must buy and pay for insurance in CIF but not in CFR. in the CPT, the seller's responsibilty is ended as the goods has been completely delivered to the carrier whether they are shipped or not, so they use this term as the goods are packed in container and carried in container vessel. and in the CIP, the seller must buy and pay for the insurance like the term of CIF but the responsibility is ended as the goods have been completely delivered to the carriers whether they are shipped or not. You can see that CIF and CIP are the only two terms of the Incoterms 2000 in that the seller must buy and pay for the insurance
Replying to [int786]:i have answered to your question but i have found out that you said you know well about FOB, CNF, CIF but not know about CFR, but i think CNF is exactly CFR. Maybe CNF is the another way to stand for "cost and freight". I think CFR is more popular.
