FOB, CFR & CIF are already outdated and are dangerous terms to use. Many traders are presently using FOB. CFR & CIF without knowing the risks involved. Traders instead should switch to use FCA, CPT and CIP. Incoterms are international rules published by the International Chamber of Commerce for the interpretation of trade terms. There are altogether 13 trade terms under Incoterms 2000 viz; EXW, FOB, FCA, FAS, CFR, CIF, CPT, CIP, DAF, DES, DEQ, DDU, DDP Exporters and Importers, and insurers.
