FOB = Free On Board. It's the physical geographical point at which title (and the risk of loss) transfers to the buyer from the seller. It can be the shipping point, delivery point, or any intermediary waypoint such as an ocean port on either end. The buyer is responsible for shipping charges from the FOB point onwards as well. CNF = Cost, No Insurance & Freight. The cost of the goods plus freight charges. The buyer is responsible for any insurance costs. This is usually the best way as it allows the buyer to use a local insurance carrier of his choice. See CIF below. CIF = Cost, Insurance & Freight. As above but includes insurance purchased by the shipper. Not a wise idea on international shipments as it may be difficult to file a claim. And the shipper chooses the insurance carrier so rates are often higher.
