“As the international body that drafts and maintains Incoterms® rules, there is no better place to learn about them than at ICC,” said Emily O'Connor, Senior Policy Manager of the ICC Commission on Commercial Law and Practice. “The exciting ‘Meet the Experts’ launch event offers a rare opportunity for real exchange between users of the Incoterms® rules and international Incoterms® rules experts, including those who helped draft the most recent version.”

The practical publication comprises over 80 new and historical questions on the use of Incoterms® rules, comprehensive flowcharts, checklists for choosing the correct Incoterms® rule and managing related documents in an Incoterms® sale or purchase transaction, and a comprehensive glossary of commonly-used trade terms.
