Import Export Specialist Interview Question:

What is CIP?

Submitted by: Muhammad

CIP is carriage and insurance paid to (named place of destination). This is an Incoterm. Find out more information about Incoterms on the Incoterms 2000 website. The seller clears the goods for export and pays for delivery to the named destination. The goods are delivered when the seller passes the goods to its carrier. From this point the buyer takes responsibility for all costs and risks. But the seller must also take out insurance to cover the buyer's risk during transport.
