Our default quotation is FOB Chinese port. CFR / CNF arrangements are available and confirmed per order based on destination, freight route, and forwarder preference.

Default FOB

Free On Board

Risk and cost transfer to the buyer once goods are loaded on the vessel at the named Chinese port. Buyer arranges and pays for ocean freight and insurance.

Seller: export clearance + loading
Buyer: freight + insurance + import
On Request CFR

Cost & Freight

Seller covers cost and freight to the named destination port. Risk transfers to buyer once goods are on board. Insurance is buyer's responsibility.
