Q: What Is the Difference Between DDP and DDU?
A: In the world of shipping, delivered duty unpaid (DDU) simply means that it's the customer's responsibility to pay for any of the destination country's customs charges, duties, or taxes. These must all be paid in order for customs to release the shipment after it arrives.
On the other hand, delivered duty paid (DDP) means it's the shipper's responsibility to pay any of the customs charges, duties, and/or taxes required to send the product to the destination country.
Q: Who pays for DDP shipments?
A: DDP means the sender is responsible for paying the duties. Often, the Commerce seller includes these fees at checkout, directly collecting the payment from the customer.
Q: Who pays for DDU shipments?
A: DDU (delivery duty unpaid) means that the customer is responsible for paying the taxes and duties. They will be contacted by customs once their shipment arrives to settle any charges in order for the shipment to be released and delivered.
Q: Is DAP same as DDU?
A: Yes. In 2010, DDU was removed from Incoterms and replaced with DAP. They are often used in place of each other.
Q: Does DDP include unloading?
A: No. The seller does no pay for unloading in DDP. That's why the exact destination must be mentioned outright.
