DELIVERED DUTY UNPAID ( ... named place of destination)
?Delivered duty unpaid" means that the seller delivers the goods to the buyer, not cleared for import, and not unloaded from my arriving means of transport at the named place of destination. The seller has to bear the costs and risks involved in bringing the goods thereto, other than, where applicable1 , any ?duty?(Which term includes the responsibility for and the risks of the carrying out of customs formalities, and the payment of formalities, custom duties, taxes and other charges) for import in the country of destination. Such "duty" has to be borne by the buyer as well as any costs and risks caused by his failure to to clear the goods for import in time.

However, if the parties wish the seller to carry out custom formalities and bear the costs and risks resulting therefrom as well as some of the costs payable upon import of the goods, this should be made clear by adding explicit wording to this effect in the contract of sale2.

This term may be used irrespective of the mode of transport but when delivery is to take place in the port of destination on board the vessel or on the quay(wharf), the DES or DEQ term should be used.

Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU) is an Incoterm. It means, that the seller pays for all transportation costs and bears all risk until the goods have been delivered, but does not pay for the duty.

Please search on google use "incoterm" for detail
