Incoterms (International Commercial Terms)
You must enter incoterms on your commercial invoice. This lets the customs department know who is responsible for paying any potential customs fees.
We have listed the two most common incoterms that are used.
- DDP (Delivered Duty Paid)
This will make the exporter responsible for any customs charges. This option must be used when sending to a residential address. - DAP (Delivered At Place)
This option places the responsibility of customs costs onto the importer of the goods. The receiver of the goods will be contacted for payment of customs charges prior to delivery.
You must include on of the above incoterms when sending pallets to Ireland with PalletOnline.
Please note that delivery dates on our website are estimated and may be delayed slightly if customs do not pass through as quickly as possible.
