FCA (Free Carrier)
FCA (Free Carrier) is an Incoterms rule under which the seller delivers the export-cleared goods to the carrier nominated by the buyer at an agreed place. From that moment the risk passes to the buyer.
FCA is convenient for container and multimodal shipments and is often more advantageous than EXW: the seller handles export clearance. The place of handover (the seller's warehouse or a terminal) affects how costs are split.
We will arrange the logistics and clear the import for supplies on FCA terms.
