交货:
装运:
关键点:
卖方按照同买方约定的时间、地点和运输方式将合同规定的货物交付给买方或其代理人。
将货物装上运输工具,它与交货是两个不同的概念。
在国际贸易中,由于采用FOB/CIF/CFR三种价格术语时,卖方只要根据合同的有关规定将货物装上船,取得提单,就算交货。提单签发日期亦即为交货日。因此,装运一词常被用来代替交货的概念。这种凭单交货被称为象征性交货(Symbolic Delivery)。凭单交货时,装运期和交货期是一致的(实际交货Physical Delivery是指货物运抵目的地,因而,装运时间与交货时间并不是一致的)。
装运期:
Key Points
立即装运 immediate shipment
即期装运 prompt shipment(各国对它的解释不尽相同。美国指合同签订后三周内装船,而英国是在签约后两周内装运。)
尽快装运 shipment as soon as possible
(交货期)可分为:定期装运、近期装运和不定期装运。
定期装运即明确规定具体期限
限于某月或某几个月内装运
for shipment during October 1999
限于某月某日前装运
shipment on or before 15 November 1999
近期装运采用某些术语表示装运期
不定期装运即规定在收到信用证后若干天装运
shipment within 30 days after receipt of the L/C
Key Points
是对外贸易中一个重要的环节,它包括运输包装(习惯称外包装或大包装)和销售包装(习惯称小包装或内包装)。它们都是为了保护商品的品质完好和数量完整而采取的措施。
装运标志(唛头或墨头):
中性包装:
包装:
指示性标志和警告性标志,其中运输标志是必不可缺的。按照国际标准组织(ISO)建议,为了简化单证,便于用打字机一次做成,运输标志不宜用几何图形。一般包括4行,每行不超过7个字母,包括数字和符号。①收货人或发货人的代号名称;②合同号码或信用证号码;③目的港;④件号、序号。
它是在商品包装上既不注明生产国别、地名和厂名,也不注明原有商标和牌号的包装。
中性包装分无牌中性包装和定牌中性包装。其目的是为了打破进口国所实施的关税与非关税壁垒或为了满足买方的特殊需求而采取的措施。
Specimen Letter 1
Dear Sirs,
We regret to inform you that of the 100 cardboard cartons of screws you shipped to Istanbul on 28 January, eight were delivered damaged, of course, through no fault of yours.
We are writing you about the packing of these screws, in order to avoid the similar incident, we feel necessary to clarify the concrete stipulation for our future dealings.
The packing for Istanbul should be in wooden cases of 112 , each containing 7 Lbs x 16 packets. For Jeddah, we would like you to have the goods packed in double gunny bags of 50 kilos each. As for the Calcutta market, our buyers prefer 25-kilo cardboard cartons.
Please let us know whether these requirements could be met.
Yours faithfully,
