Freight Forwarding Clause Samples
The Freight Forwarding clause outlines the responsibilities and procedures for arranging the transportation of goods from one location to another, typically on behalf of a buyer or seller. It specifies who is responsible for selecting the freight forwarder, managing shipping documentation, and coordinating logistics such as customs clearance and delivery schedules. For example, the clause may require the seller to organize shipment to a designated port or stipulate that the buyer must handle all import procedures. Its core function is to clearly allocate duties related to the movement of goods, thereby minimizing confusion and ensuring efficient and timely delivery.
