Most project cargo disputes do not start on the vessel. They start in the contract.
Specifically, with the wrong Incoterm.
Incoterms are internationally recognised rules that define who is responsible for what at every stage of a shipment.
Costs. Risk. Insurance. Export clearance. Import duties. Final delivery to site.
For project cargo moving across multiple modes and multiple jurisdictions, that clarity is not a formality. It is what determines who carries the liability when something changes mid-operation.
The wrong term does not just create a paperwork problem. It creates a gap in accountability at exactly the moment a project can least afford one.
At Transcar, Incoterm selection is part of every project conversation from the outset.
The right term helps protects the schedule. The wrong one creates problems for everyone involved.
