Choosing the wrong Incoterm quietly eats your margin — or your shipment. Here is a distributor-focused comparison of FOB, CIF and DDP for bluetooth earphones leaving China.
Our price covers goods to the vessel in China; freight and insurance are yours. Best when: you have a forwarder you trust and want transparent lane pricing. Watch out: you handle booking, and delay at origin becomes your delay.
We deliver to your named port with insurance included. Best when: first shipment to a new lane, or you want one supplier number for goods+freight (e.g. Jebel Ali, Lagos, Mombasa). Watch out: compare our CIF rate against your forwarder’s FOB quote on the same port.
We deliver to your door including import duties. Best when: you want a landed cost with no customs surprises. Watch out: available only for lanes we know well, and usually priced with a premium — ask for both DDP and CIF to compare.
Retail boxes in reinforced export cartons, moisture protection, clear carton marks and complete documents (invoice, packing list, B/L). Mixed-SKU loading supported for multi-model orders.
Depends on your freight contacts — always request both FOB and CIF for the same port and compare. DDP is convenient but usually carries a premium.
Varies by lane and season; your quote includes current transit estimates for your destination port.
