International Shipping Policy 2009
(Download shipping policy - pdf)
All International Shipments will be shipped using one of the enclosed Incoterm methods.
Please keep in mind that these International Shipping (Incoterms) methods, policies, and procedures have been established to function within
US Customs Import and Export Laws, and the standard policies of the international shipping community.
Clark-Reliance can only work within the Incoterm options listed in this policy.
This policy has been developed to help both Clark-Reliance and the customer clearly define the responsibilities, procedures,
and required information needed to fulfill the purchase order in the most expedient and economical means possible.
Incoterms define the responsibility of the buyer and the seller (Clark-Reliance) but it does not:
- Communicate payment terms
- Convey title of goods
Purpose of Incoterms
- Define the role and responsibilities of the buyer and seller for the delivery of goods
- Determine how costs and risks are allocated
- Incoterms are NOT law, but a set of rules accepted by all international shipping organizations used by Clark-Reliance
EX Works is our recommended and preferred method for international shipping.
