An aspiring importer-exporter should know:

  • The law of supply and demand;
  • What consumers want to buy;
  • The differences in price between "your" costs and buyers' costs;
  • What sale prices the market can bear;
  • The differences between price paid to export (shipping costs and the price consumers are willing to pay (unit price);
  • The risks for unmarketable items; what is the backup plan if the products don't sell overseas; will you discount it; wholesale it; dump the products in the other country, or donate them;
  • How to work with domestic loaders and shippers, and the overseas loaders and shippers
  • How to work with overseas vendors who will be selling for you;
  • The difference between what overseas vendors will charge to sell your product versus what consumers will pay, versus what the exporter needs to earn to cover shipping plus to earn an income;
  • Banking rules -- domestic and abroad;
  • Tax laws both in the exporter's country and in the overseas country;
  • Tax laws for filing taxes on earnings and losses.

That's just some off the top of my head.

Who will pay the carrier charges INCO terms under FCA - whether the Exporter or the importer?

Certainly the Exporter. FCA means Free Carrier. The New INCO Terms - 2010, clearly says that the Exporter should pay the first carrier charges. The Importer should have to mention the place at where the consignment is to be loaded in the container. After the container is loaded with the consignment, the Exporter is not responsible for the shipment. The responsibility passes over to Importer from Exporter. ( INCO Terms - International Commercial terms - is the trademark of ICC - wherein the responsibilities are clearly formulated) - S. Marutha Pandian, Import-Export Manager.
