Understanding Incoterms 2020

Why attend this course

The course is suitable for those working in an Export environment and have some knowledge of Incoterms. This could be from previously attending the understanding Exporting course where Incoterms would have first been introduced.

Although it would benefit the delegate to have sat previous International trade courses previously, it is not vital, delegates will be accepted with no previous training.

It would also suit those who are looking to investigate if their current Incoterms are suitable and explore the option of using other terms.

Course content & agenda

The course will provide an overview of the changes that have taken place between the previous 2010 Incoterms to the new 2020 terms.

It will also provide a guide on the obligations and costs to the buyer and seller during a sale to include when risk passes during the transaction from seller to buyer.
