In international trade, people buy and sell goods and then send them from one country to another. It can be a very risky business. If the goods are lost or damaged or if delivery does not take place as scheduled for some other reasons, the climate of confidence between the parties may deteriorate to the point where a lawsuit I launched. Nevertheless, the seller and the buyer in international transactions want their deal to be successfully completed.
Frequently, the parties to international transaction are not aware of the different trading practice in their counterpart’s country. This can give rise to misunderstanding, disputes and even litigation, causing waste of time and money.

Since 1936, the Incoterms have been revised several times to take account of changes in transportation techniques and to render them fully compatible with the new developments in electronic data interchange. Amendments and additions were made in 1953, 1967, 1976, 1980 and 1990 in order to bring the rules in line
