CIP in a contract: what to specify

A delivery term without an exact place and without the conditions around it does not work well

✓Code and edition: “CIP [place], Incoterms® 2020” — without the year it is unclear which rules apply
✓Precise place of destination: the seller pays for carriage and insurance up to it
✓Mode of transport: any
✓Deadline for notice that the goods are ready for shipment
✓Transfer of title — Incoterms does not govern it; the contract ties it to the moment of delivery
✓Insurance: the seller, Institute Cargo Clauses (A), at least 110%
✓Payment terms and the deadline for refunding the advance if there is no delivery
✓Documents the seller hands over: invoice, packing list, transport document

Questions about the CIP term

Meaning, risk, costs, title

CIP stands for Carriage and Insurance Paid To. Like CPT, but the seller also insures the cargo in favour of the buyer: at least 110% of the value, on Institute Cargo Clauses (A) — the widest cover. Risk passes when the goods are handed over to the first carrier at the place of shipment.
CIF is only for sea and inland waterway transport; CIP is for any mode of transport. The insurance differs too: under CIF the minimum cover of Institute Cargo Clauses (C) is enough, while CIP, since the 2020 edition, requires the widest cover — Clauses (A). In both cases the sum insured is at least 110% of the value of the goods.
The level of insurance was raised: previously, as with CIF, the minimum cover of Institute Cargo Clauses (C) was enough; now the seller must insure on Clauses (A). The parties may agree on lower cover, but this has to be written expressly in the contract.
Incoterms does not govern the transfer of title — the rules deal only with delivery, risk and costs. The moment title passes is set by the contract or the applicable law; under Russian law (Article 223 of the Russian Civil Code), ownership arises from the moment the thing is handed over, unless the contract provides otherwise. In our contract title passes together with risk — at the moment of delivery under CIP.
The rule code, the precise place of destination and the edition of the rules, for example: CIP Moscow, Buyer's warehouse, Incoterms® 2020. Under paragraph 6 of Article 1211 of the Russian Civil Code, if the contract uses a trade term accepted in international commerce, the parties are deemed to have agreed on the customs that the term denotes — so it is better to name the edition expressly.

CIP Incoterms 2020 — delivery terms

CIP in plain words

CIP fits when the seller arranges carriage by any mode of transport itself and insures the cargo, and the buyer wants to receive a policy with wide cover without concluding its own insurance contract.

How CIP is written in our contract

The delivery term is set out in Annex No. 1 (Specification) in English and Russian. The English column for this term:
CIP [place]
Delivery and transfer of risk: The Seller has fulfilled its delivery obligation when it hands the Goods over to the carrier it has contracted with (the first carrier). The risk of loss of or damage to the Goods and the title to the Goods pass from the Seller to the Buyer at that moment. The Seller paying for carriage and insurance to [place] does not change the moment when risk passes: the arrival of the Goods at the destination is not delivery.
Costs: The Seller pays for carriage and insurance to the named place of destination ([place]) and bears export formalities. The Buyer bears the costs from delivery onwards, except the carriage and insurance paid by the Seller, as well as unloading at the destination unless it is included in the contract of carriage.
Customs clearance: export clearance is the Seller's obligation; import clearance, duties and taxes are the Buyer's.
Insurance: The Seller insures the Goods at its own cost in favour of the Buyer for at least 110% of their value on the terms of Institute Cargo Clauses (A) (or similar clauses) for the whole carriage from the place of delivery to the named place of destination ([place]).

CIP and customs value on import

Under CIP the seller pays for carriage and includes it in the price of the goods. If the place of destination is inside Russia, part of these costs falls on the leg across the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union. Under paragraph 2 of Article 40 of the EAEU Customs Code, such costs are not included in the customs value — provided that they are separated from the price, declared by the declarant and supported by documents. It is therefore better to show the cost of delivery beyond the border as a separate amount in the supplier's documents.
