FOB - free on board. This basically means that the cost of delivering the goods to the nearest port (of seller) is included but the buyer is responsible for the shipping from there and all other fees associated with getting the goods to his/her country/address.
CIF – Cost, Insurance and Freight. In this case, the price also includes sea freight charges and insurance to deliver the goods to Buyers' nearest port. But only to the port – from that point onwards, buyer takes the shipment into his/her hands.
