Chapter 338 (1/2)

”Hello, younger martial sister!”

Yesterday, the senior lecturer sat next to me and said hello to me politely. Step on the platform and have a class.

Everyone is normal except me.

I understand.

Look at Brian. He is ready to listen carefully.

He said it yesterday. He has always been in the United States. So the domestic law is not very clear, so he also needs to study hard.

I don't think he needs to grind from such a foundation bit by bit. But he would. What should he do?

”Today we will talk about the outline of the law of the international carriage of goods.”

Elder martial brother, it's like listening to the book of heaven.

Brian handed me a note:

”Listen carefully. Maybe there's no end. But they all work. The company exports. It's useful. ”

Oh, OK. International. It's not too far from me. I've been abroad, and Brian came back from America. I've read some of them in books. I'm not too strange.

I even know a few words: FOB, CIF, CNF, CFR, FCA, Fas. Maybe it's more than that.

A person in the company's sales department once mentioned FOB, free on bed (sorry). It's board, free on board

To put it simply, it's over to deliver the goods to the port of shipment. I have nothing to do with you when you encounter a tsunami at sea.

CIF, cost, insurance, and freight (commonly known as ”CIF”), which is similar to door-to-door delivery, it doesn't matter who delivers, but it needs to handle freight insurance for the buyer and pay the premium.

Fas, is the designated port of shipment, ship side delivery, the seller for export customs clearance procedures.

Sometimes the export procedures are very cumbersome. It's very important who will clear the customs.

CIP, commonly known as free trade zone price, is the freight and insurance paid to a designated place, shorter than CIF.

Of course, these terms are related to pricing, so they have the concept of cost.

In fact, international freight and international sales are closely related. When pricing, we must consider the mode of transportation, otherwise there is a great difference.

For some heavy but inexpensive things, the freight may account for 50% or even more of the value of the goods. At this time, it's meaningless to just say how much the goods are worth.

It can be seen that under the same circumstances, the price of CIF will be higher than that of FOB; As for the specific situation, it is much more complicated.

Senior brother's class:

”From the development history of international freight transport, we can see that the first international freight transport was by sea; Today, a large part of international freight is still transported by sea. Therefore, many norms of international freight transport law are also developed from maritime transport. Let's first have a general understanding of... Some basic knowledge of maritime transport, which is very helpful for us to understand international freight transport law. For example, the most common customs clearance, delivery, chartering, insurance premium, force majeure... Marine transportation is greatly affected by natural forces, accidents happen from time to time, how to arrange claims... How to deal with prohibited goods... With the development of science and technology, air transportation is gradually increasing, which is also very different from sea transportation, Therefore, in international freight transportation, there are many separate rules about air transportation... But the two modes of transportation are different, and they are similar to each other in terms of delivery. Therefore, just as FOB terms are still applicable, there are some basic rules, too... ”

Elder martial brother is very knowledgeable and can really speak. After class, there is no one to take care of him. He has been talking to Balabala until 9:30, and he is still going on.

I doubt it. Is it so casual in the university?

Really, I'm a little tired, or I won't be distracted.

To tell you the truth, elder martial brother spoke very well. When I looked around, Brian had disappeared. Suddenly, there were many more people in the classroom, from half to half. Although it was not full, it was much more beautiful.

I'll take another look, whisper, eat, nap, hold hands and kiss... HMM, I listen to class.

It's easy for me to quarrel with Yin Yijie about the learning opportunity. It can't be put on the study of human behavior, can it?

Elder martial brother is really a genius. He has taught the boring law class so vividly that until now, the projector has just printed out the United Nations Convention on the carriage of goods by sea. But I think I'm very interested and can't wait to have a look.

Sure enough, this is the homework of this class. I took the contents of the book as homework directly. I learned a homework by self-study at home. Roar.

It's really useful to go to school.

Elder martial brother said:

”Here are some definitions. I hope you can think about them from point to area. Next time we will talk about the contents of the Convention

On the wall, there are some basic definitions:

1. ”Carrier” means any person who enters into a contract of carriage of goods by sea with the shipper by himself or in his name;

2. ”Actual carrier”,

3. ”Shipper”

4. ”Consignee” refers to the person who has the right to take delivery of the goods;

5. ”Goods”

6. ”Contract of carriage by sea” refers to the contract under which the carrier collects freight to transport the goods from one port to another; However, a contract which includes both carriage by sea and certain other modes of transport shall be regarded as a contract of carriage by sea within the meaning of this Convention only when it involves carriage by sea.

7. ”Bill of lading”

”Original bill of lading”

Original-b / L, I seem to have heard of this thing. Well, if you have something familiar, come back to class... I feel great.
