30、d:l To solve the problem: who will bear the charges of unloading the goods at the port of destinationl 注意：CIF的变形只是为了说明目的港卸货费用的负担问题，并不改变CIF的交货地点和风险划分界线。The use of CIFl CIF is preferred by buyerl 1) it means they have little to do with the goods until the goods arrive at the port of destination in the

31、ir country.l 2) it allows buyers to compare prices from suppliers around the world without having to take into consideration differing freight rates, since the seller pays the freight and insurance.l Seller “like” CIF too: under the pressure from their government, seller is required to use domestic

32、carriers and insurers.Special issues in practice of CIFl 保险险别 一般做法是， 在签订买卖合同时,在合同的保险条款中，明确规定保险险别、保险金额等内容，这样，卖方就应按照合同的规定办理投保。 但如果合同中未能就保险险别等问题作出具体规定，那就根据有关惯例来处理。按照2000年通则对CIF的解释，卖方只须投保最低程度的险别，但买方可以要求卖方办理附加保险。象征性交货问题l 象征性交货(symbolic delivery)规定的包括物权凭证在内的有关单证，就算完成了交货义务，而无需保证货到。l 特点：卖方凭单交货，买方凭单付款。l 只要卖方

33、如期向买方提交了合同规定的全套合格单据（名称、内容和份数相符的单据），即使货物在运输途中损坏或灭失，买方也必须履行付款义务。反之，如果卖方提交的单据不符合要求，即使货物完好无损地运到目的地，买方仍有权拒付货款。卸货费用负担问题l 按照CIF交货条件，卖方负责将合同规定的货物运往合同规定的目的港，并支付正常的运费。那么货到目的港的卸货费用应由谁来负担？l 根据通则的解释，如无相反的规定，应由买方负担。l 华沙牛津规则和美国对外贸易定义并未对这一问题作出具体规定。CASE STUDY 1 我西北某市某出口公司于某年12月向日本出口30吨甘草膏，每吨40箱共1200箱，每吨售价为1800美元FOB新

34、港，共54，000美元，即期信用证，装运期为12月25日前，货物必须装集装箱。该公司在12月上旬便将货物运到天津，并负责订箱装船。不料货物在天津存仓后的第三天，仓库午夜着火，1200箱货物全部被焚。该公司只好要求日商将装运期延长15天，重新发货。Case Study 2某公司按FOB与一外商成交，合同规定交货期为12月。12月8日卖方收到买方发来的派船通知，指定船只将于12月18日到达我港口。卖方遂准备好货物于12月16日运到了码头。可是直至12月26日船舶仍无踪影，当晚发生火灾，使我出口公司货物遭到严重损失。该项损失应由谁承担？Case Study 3某市一进出口公司按CFR贸易术语与法国马

35、赛一进口商签订一批抽纱台布出口合同，价值8万美元。货物于1月8日上午装“昌盛轮”完毕，当天因经办该项业务的外销员工作繁忙，待到9日上班时才想起给买方发装船通知。法商收到我装船通知向当地保险公司申请投保时，该保险公司已获悉“昌盛轮”已于9日凌晨在海上遇难而拒绝承担。于是法商立即来电表示该批货物损失应由我进出口公司承担并同时索赔8000美元，且拒不赎单。由于该法商是我方老客户，经我方向其申述困难并表示歉意后也就不再坚持索赔，但我方钱货两空的教训实值得吸取。Case Study 4一份CFR合同，A公司卖3000吨小麦给B公司，A公司按规定的时间和地点，将5000吨散装小麦装船，其中的3000吨属于

36、卖给B公司的，货抵目的港后由船公司负责分拨。A公司装船后及时发出装船通知。受载船只在途中遇险，使该批货损失了3000吨，其余2000吨安全运抵目的港。买方提货时，卖方宣称3000吨小麦已全部灭失，而且按FOB合同，货物风险已在装运港越过船弦时转移给B公司，卖方对此项损失不负任何责任。CASE STUDY 5某公司从美国进口特种异型钢材200吨，每吨按900美元FOB Vessel New York成交，支付方式为即期L/C并应于2月28日前开达，装船期为3月份。我方于2月20日通过中国银行开出一张18万美元的信用证。2月28日美商来电称：“信用证金额不足，应增加1万美元备用。否则有关出口税捐及

37、各种签证费用，由你方另行电汇”。我方接电后认为这是美方无理要求，随即回电指出：“按FOB Vessel条件成交，卖方应负责出口手续及费用，这在INCOTERMS中已有规定”。美方回电：“成交时未明确规定按INCOTERMS办理，应按我方商业习惯和1941年修正本”。我方只好将信用证金额增加至19万美元。 How to use FOB、CFR、CIF?When exporting CIFWhen importing FOB1.
