Abstract
The first version of INCOTERMS was published in 1936. As commercial practice changes from time to time, some revisions of INCOTERMS are necessary. The latest revision took place in 2000. INCOTERMS have so far been satisfactorily used worldwide in the intersection between contracts of sale, carriage and insurance as well with documentary credits. The combination of the 1980 UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and INCOTERMS 2000 now constitutes a solid basis for the correct understanding and implementation of international contracts of sale.
