rule that can be used for any mode of transport.<\/p>\n<p>It is sometimes considered to be an extension of Delivered at Place Unloaded (DPU), since the seller delivers the goods at a named destination, although under the DAP the buyer is responsible for unloading the goods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Introduction\">Introduction to Delivered at Place (DAP)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Under the DAP Incoterm, the seller is responsible for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">delivering the goods to a place named by a buyer (which is typically the buyer\u2019s premises), and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">carrying out any export formalities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The buyer is responsible for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">arranging for goods to be unloaded at the named place of destination, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">carrying out any import formalities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Like with CPT and CIP, the seller contracts for carriage and risk transfers to the buyer only upon \u201cdelivery\u201d (which now is at the buyer\u2019s premises).&nbsp;Under DAP, the seller has no obligation to the buyer to insure for its risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">This rule works well for the transport of goods by land within the European and Central Asian landmass but runs into potential problems once there is a change in the mode of transport along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"438\"

country, these must be carried out by the buyer while the goods sit at the airport. Once cleared, the seller\u2019s carrier (typically a freight forwarder) must then be given whatever paperwork they require to move the cargo from the airport to its final destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The same situation exists for cross-ocean container shipments with the added complication that the seller must return the empty container at its own expense.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">It should be noted, as well, that the buyer should not be the consignee on any air waybill or bill of lading. That should be the seller since it is the seller who has to arrange for its forwarder to take possession of the goods from the airline or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/freight-forwarding\/shipping-management-software\/\">shipping<\/a>&nbsp;company and arrange local inland transport, typically by truck.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">If the goods are damaged or lost at any stage before the final destination, then the seller will be unable to deliver and may well be in breach of contract, with the additional complication that the buyer will have already paid import duties and VAT\/GST.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">If the buyer is unable to import clear the goods expeditiously, then it might find that it bears the risk while the goods sit in customs control and is itself in breach of contract if the seller cannot deliver the goods as contracted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dap_podcast\">Delivered at Place podcast<\/h2>\n\n\n<section class=\"full-width\">\n  <div class=\"w-100\">\n    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Part 6 - Delivered at Place, DAP, one of the Rules for Any Mode or Modes of Transport\" height=\"150\" width=\"100%\" style=\"border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\" data-name=\"pb-iframe-player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.podbean.com\/player-v2\/?from=old_player&#038;btn-skin=104&#038;skin=1&#038;mini=0&#038;rtl=0&#038;fonts=Helvetica&#038;download=1&#038;share=1&#038;start_at=0&#038;i=ptkpf-c94ea4-pb\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-delivered-at-place-seller-and-buyer-obligations\">Delivered at Place seller and buyer obligations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dap-a1-b1-general-obligations\">DAP A1 \/ B1 general obligations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a1-general-obligations\"><strong>A1&nbsp;<em>(General Obligations)<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">In each of the eleven rules, the seller must provide the goods and their commercial invoice as required by the contract of sale and any other evidence of conformity, such as an analysis certificate that might be relevant and specified in the contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Each of the rules also provides that any document can be in paper or electronic form as agreed in the contract, or if the contract makes no mention of this, then the rules default to what is customary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The rules do not explicitly define what \u201celectronic form\u201d is.

This usually would be a truck but could be a train, barge, ship or even sometimes a chartered aircraft.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">A common mistake with DAP and DDP is the belief that the destination will always be the buyer\u2019s premises.&nbsp;This does not need not be the case, as the buyer could nominate anywhere it chooses. This could be the site of a new factory they are building for their client, it could be the container terminal in the destination country, or it could be somewhere else entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">If the chosen place is the buyer\u2019s premises or a site they have nominated, then usually, they would have the equipment on hand to unload the goods.

It could be that it is to be the buyer\u2019s premises or a particular location, say in an empty building site, the carrier\u2019s premises, the airport, the container yard, or a particular quay on the river\u2026 the exact point should be agreed upon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">If the exact location is not specified, then the seller can select the point that best suits its purpose, which will usually be the cheapest option, such as a cargo terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">For both DAP and DPU, if the delivery at the destination is to occur after the buyer completes any necessary import formalities, then the buyer must bear the cost of storage due to delays in those formalities being completed (assuming the seller has provided the buyer with necessary documents in time).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The seller must bear the cost of any storage due to delays in import clearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-b4-carriage\"><strong>B4&nbsp;<em>(Carriage)<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Under DAP, the buyer has no obligation to the seller to arrange a contract of carriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dap-a5-b5-insurance\">DAP A5 \/ B5: insurance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a5-insurance\"><strong>A5&nbsp;<em>(Insurance)<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Despite the seller having the risk of loss or damage to the goods up to the delivery point, the seller does not have an obligation to the buyer to insure the goods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-b5-insurance\"><strong>B5&nbsp;<em>(Insurance)<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Because the seller has the risk of loss or damage to the goods up to the delivery point, the buyer does not have an obligation to the seller to insure the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dap-a6-b6-delivery-transport-document\">DAP A6 \/ B6: delivery \/ transport document<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a6-delivery-transport-document\"><strong>A6&nbsp;<em>(Delivery \/ Transport document)<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The seller (at its own cost) must provide the buyer with any document the buyer needs to take possession of the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The specific form of this documentation will depend on the agreement in the contract and could be as simple as a receipt that the buyer is to sign.

DDU itself actually meant that delivery occurred after the buyer had import cleared the goods and paid the duty, prompting the change to its current version.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Also rolled into DAP was the old DAF (Delivered at Frontier, first appearing in Incoterms\u00ae 1967) and DES (Delivered Ex Ship, originally \u201cEXS\u201d Ex Ship in the 1953 rules) which like DDU, provided for delivery not unloaded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">These two were effectively redundant as by stating \u201cat the named place of destination\u201d in DDU it included at the frontier or on the ship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-advantages\"><strong>Advantages&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The DAP Incoterms\u00ae 2020 rule does not specify that the place of delivery must be the buyer\u2019s premises even though that is common usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Under DAP, the goods are considered to be \u201cdelivery\u201d when the seller places \u201cthem at the disposal of the buyer on the arriving means of transport ready for unloading at the agreed point, if any, at the named place of destination.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">This means that the seller and buyer need to agree on precisely where that delivery is to take place. Without such agreement, how can the seller know where to deliver?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">This rule is suitable for domestic trade as well as transactions within a customs union, however it can become impractical or problematic for cross-ocean trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-disadvantage\"><strong>Disadvantage&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">In cross-ocean transactions, the buyer must import-clear the goods, so typically, they will be held in a customs bonded warehouse or terminal until those formalities have been completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Until they go into customs control in the importing country, they are at the seller\u2019s risk, but while they are under customs control, they are at the buyer\u2019s risk. If the buyer has a problem, say with an incorrectly issued import permit, which delays clearance or even leads to a refusal to clear, the buyer\u2019s actions prevent the seller from delivering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Once import clearance has been completed, and assuming the delivery point was not the customs warehouse or terminal where the goods were waiting for that clearance, the goods need to be released to the seller\u2019s carrier or its agent to then continue the journey to the named destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dap_2020_diagrams\">Delivered at Place (DAP) Diagram 2024<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"701\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107914\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022.jpg 701w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-320x183.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-370x211.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-414x236.jpg 414w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-526x300.jpg 526w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-351x200.jpg 351w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-438x250.jpg 438w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-284x162.jpg 284w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-279x159.jpg 279w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-216x123.jpg 216w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/DAP-Delivered-at-Place-Diagram-2022-285x163.jpg 285w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\"><em><strong>Diagram<\/strong>: DAP \u2013 obligations from the seller and buyer, and where the transfer of risk between each party is transferred.

The seller, of course, would be prudent to insure the goods, but it can choose to self-insure, meaning take the risk itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The seller needs to be very careful pricing a DAP sale, taking into account all possibilities and potential problems especially as part of transport may take place within the buyer\u2019s country after release from the customs-controlled warehouse or terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">If the buyer requires extra documents, such as a certificate of origin, the seller must assist the buyer in obtaining it (at the buyer\u2019s risk and cost).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Unlike all the preceding rules, the DAP seller is also responsible for any formalities which might occur in any country of transit, particularly important if the sale is to a final destination in a land-locked country and the sea shipment initially goes to a port in an adjacent country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The seller is not required to give the buyer any transport document, but where the shipment is containerised by sea, the import authorities might require a transport document showing the date of export to calculate the value for duty in their local currency. This will be dependent on how that importing country values goods for import.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-dap-better-than-cip\"><strong>Is DAP better than CIP?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">What advantages are there to the seller over&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/incoterms\/cip-carriage-insurance-paid-to\/\">CIP<\/a>? Probably none.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The disadvantage to the seller is that the goods are at risk until the destination, except during any import clearance. If the goods are lost in transit, then the seller, assuming they cannot replace the goods before the contracted delivery date, would be in breach of their contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">If the goods are damaged in transit, the seller would likewise be in breach of contract if they cannot make good that damage (at their cost and risk) within the contracted delivery period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The contract might have hidden in it a rather onerous liquidated damages clause, the kind of thing about which many people\u2019s eyes glaze over, and they disregard at their peril.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-1024x438.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107918\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-1024x438.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-768x328.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-700x300.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-320x137.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-370x158.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-414x177.jpg 414w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-600x257.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-372x159.jpg 372w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-450x192.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-380x162.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2-285x122.jpg 285w, https:\/\/www.tradefinanceglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Shipping-2.jpg 1230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dap_lcs\">Delivered at Place and letters of credit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">DAP transactions are largely incompatible with payment by the typical letter of credit (LC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">With delivery only occurring at the very end of the transport chain, an LC calling for the presentation of, say, a bill of lading consigned to order and blank endorsed would be a contradiction to DAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The situation becomes even more complex if the issuing bank routinely demands bills of lading to be consigned to its order, which is then endorsed over to the applicant (the buyer) to enable the buyer to take possession of the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">In such cases, the seller\u2019s security is at risk if the buyer fails to take delivery of the goods. This risk is heightened by the fact that the seller\u2019s truck may be left waiting at the buyer\u2019s specified delivery location for unloading, all the while depending on the issuing bank to fulfil its obligations under the LC before the transfer of goods can be completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Imagine how strange it would be for the seller to arrive at the buyer\u2019s receiving dock, obtain some form of delivery receipt from the buyer, send it back to their office overseas, and present it to their bank, which sends it to the issuing bank who hopefully honours the presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Meanwhile, the truck is sitting blocking the receiving dock for a couple of weeks, with the driver having set up camp in the truck\u2019s cabin until his office back home tells him they have received payment and he can now let the buyer unload!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"
