What Is the Difference Between FOB, CIF, DAP, and DDP for Sportswear?

FOB places delivery and risk transfer on board the vessel at the named shipment port.

CIF adds seller-arranged freight and specified insurance to the destination port, while risk still transfers at shipment. Both apply to sea or inland-waterway transport. DAP delivers at the named destination ready for unloading, with import clearance generally assigned to the buyer. DDP assigns import clearance and applicable import charges to the seller. These terms do not settle every commercial issue; confirm the named place, rule version, excluded charges, and local feasibility before comparing offers.
