Detaillierte Technische Analyse zu FCA
Operative Mechanismen und kommerzielle Praxis in der internationalen Spedition
Free Carrier (FCA) is the most flexible and highly recommended Incoterm under the ICC 2020 framework. It can be used for any transport mode, including road trucking, ocean container shipping, air freight, and multimodal rail. Under Option A (seller's premises), the seller loads the goods onto the carrier's truck and clears export customs. Under Option B (carrier's terminal or forwarder warehouse), the seller delivers goods to the facility ready for unloading. Risk transfers immediately upon handover. Incoterms 2020 introduced a crucial provision for FCA maritime container shipments: the buyer can instruct their ocean carrier to issue an 'On-Board Bill of Lading' directly to the seller to satisfy letter of credit (L/C) banking requirements.

Why FCA is Superior to FOB and EXW in Turkish Trade
Praxisleitfaden nach türkischem Zollgesetz Nr. 4458 und Grenzvorschriften
FCA resolves the two biggest headaches in Turkish international trade. Compared to EXW, FCA requires the Turkish seller to handle domestic export customs, avoiding tax compliance issues and allowing proper VAT zero-rating under Turkish law. Compared to FOB, FCA aligns legal risk transfer with the actual operational reality of modern container logistics: risk transfers when the container is delivered to the port terminal or inland depot in Istanbul (Hadımköy/Tuzla), rather than waiting for the ship's crane to swing it on board.
