Delivery Point and Incoterms in a Metal RFQ
Why a delivery point and commercial conditions should be discussed before routing a quotation.
Where to start
Stating a city, port or terminal helps discuss routing and packing, but does not replace agreed terms or review of applicable conditions.
Use the information to prepare an enquiry, then confirm material suitability and conditions for the specific order.
Next practical step
State the intended use, material, dimensions, finish, quantity, documents and delivery point.
Open the RFQ →Can Incoterms be selected from a guide?
