Under DAP, the seller delivers the goods when they are placed at the disposal of the buyer on the arriving means of transport ready for unloading at the named place of destination. The seller bears all risks involved in bringing the goods to the named place.
Ecco come si suddividono i costi:
- Costo del prodotto: Agreed price for the standing desks is $70,000.
- Logistica locale: Costs for delivering goods from the factory to the port in China (seller’s responsibility), let’s say $2,000.
- Sdoganamento delle esportazioni: Costs for the goods to be cleared for export by Chinese customs (seller’s responsibility), let’s say $1,000.
- Spese di trasporto: Cost of shipping goods across the ocean to the destination port in New York, USA (seller’s responsibility under DAP), let’s say $5,000.
- Import Customs Clearance: Duties and taxes for goods to be cleared by US customs (buyer’s responsibility under DAP), let’s say $7,000.
- Local Logistics in the USA: Costs for delivering goods from the port to the buyer’s warehouse in New York (seller’s responsibility under DAP), let’s say $2,000.
So, the total cost to the seller (DAP price) is $70,000 (Product Cost) + $2,000 (Local Logistics) + $1,000 (Export Customs Clearance) + $5,000 (Freight Charges) + $2,000 (Local Logistics in the USA) = $80,000.
Spedizione:
Under DAP, the seller has the obligation to arrange and pay for the carriage of the goods to the agreed destination, and the risk transfers from the seller to the buyer as soon as the goods are ready for unloading at the named place. The buyer is responsible for import clearance and any applicable local taxes or import duties.
Therefore, the total cost to the buyer is the DAP price ($80,000) plus the costs of Import Customs Clearance ($7,000). That is, $80,000 + $7,000 = $87,000. The buyer bears the risk and any additional costs occurring after the goods are ready for unloading at the named place of destination.
