Self-answered : CIF implies the risk to be transfered to the buyer as soon as the goods are on board, while the DES pushes this responsibility transfert to the destination port.
FOB and CIF are INCOTERMS or international commercials terms (terms of sale).
The key difference is that the main costs of carriage are paid for by buyer in a FOB contract, so he will take care of the vessel shipment. Under a CIF arrangement, the seller take this responsibility will deliver the contracted commodity at buyers destined location.
CIF and CIP are very similar but not identical. For the seller, CIF means to leave the merchandise within the depot of the ship, which is tied up in the destination port. This is the only possible situation because CIF Incoterms are only for maritime use. However, CIP Incoterms have much more flexibility since, besides for being usable with any type of transport mode and combination thereof, you may agree upon any point of your destination country for delivery. Also, in CIF Incoterms the seller pays until the ship is tied up in the destination port, and with CIP the seller pays until the destination point whether it is an airport, a train terminal, a port, your client's home, a transporter..

In cost and insurance it will be ''Freight Collect'' but if party require as '' Freight Prepaid'' then use CIF incoterms.
Ownership and IncotermsSome companies think that the Incoterms® 2010 rules show where title/ownership passes.They do not!Incoterms® 2010 rules only relate to the physical movement of goods and indicate how costs should be divided and where risk passes.The passing of risk has nothing to do with title. Incoterms 2010 rules do not regulate ownership of the goods.
The only two incoterms®rules that indicate the goods must be insured are CIF and CIP. Insurance is taken out by the seller in the buyer's name and the insurance must be for minimum 110% of the shipment value. For all the other incoterms® rules it's unclear if the seller or buyer is arranging insurance.This can lead to inadequate or no insurance and must be clearly written in the contract.
CIP (Carriage and Insurance Paid to) and CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) are both Incoterms used in international shipping, but they differ in their application and responsibilities. CIP applies to any mode of transport and requires the seller to pay for the transportation and insurance of the goods until they reach a specified destination. In contrast, CIF is limited to maritime shipping and includes the cost of the goods, freight, and insurance until they reach the port of destination. In summary, the key differences lie in their scope of transport and the specific responsibilities of the seller and buyer.
Port of shipment refers to incoterms 2000. It is the exporter's port, the port where the goods come from. For example under the CIF term it says that the seller delivers when the goods pass the ship's rail in the port of shipment
In shipping, CIF stands for Costs Insurance and Freight. DDP or DDP(U) stands for Delivered Duty Paid and Unpaid. The first refers to arranging the shipment and the other refers to the of cost of transporting the goods.
