FOB, CFR or CIF: choosing the right incoterm

Knowledge base · 12 Nov 2026

FOB: the seller loads the cargo on the vessel at the Malaysian port. You arrange and pay ocean freight and insurance. Best if you have your own shipping contacts. CFR: the seller also arranges and pays the freight to your port. You arrange cargo insurance. CIF: as CFR, plus the seller arranges cargo insurance. In all three, risk passes to the buyer once the cargo is on board. On DX Marketplace HUB, sellers quoting CFR or CIF add freight from a verified forwarder as a separate line, so you can always see the product price on its own.
