Incoterms & Shipping Terms

We offer flexible international commercial terms to suit your procurement requirements.

Goods are made available at our Dubai warehouse. The buyer assumes responsibility for all transportation, insurance, and customs from the point of collection. Ideal for buyers with established logistics chains.

FOB (Free on Board)

We deliver goods to the agreed port of shipment and handle export customs clearance. The buyer takes responsibility once goods are loaded onto the vessel. Common for cross-border GCC shipments.

CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight)

We handle transportation and insurance to the destination port. The buyer is responsible for import customs and inland delivery. Recommended for buyers who prefer turnkey pricing.

DAP (Delivered at Place)

Full door-to-door delivery. We handle all logistics, insurance, and transportation to the agreed destination. The buyer is responsible only for import duties and unloading. Our most popular option.

Payment Terms

Wire Transfer (T/T)
