FOB to landed cost

FOB is only
the export-side price.

FOB normally places the main international carriage and later import-side costs with the buyer. A realistic landed estimate therefore needs the freight, insurance, border and destination costs that sit beyond the FOB quote.

Quick answers

FOB landed cost
FAQ.

What costs usually come after FOB?

The buyer commonly needs to account for international freight, insurance, import duty or tax, customs clearance, destination handling and inland delivery.

Is freight part of the FOB unit price?

Main international freight is normally not included in the FOB price. Confirm the exact named port and written supplier terms before calculating.

Should I use this instead of the general Landed Cost Calculator?

Use this page when the quote basis is specifically FOB. Use the general calculator when you want a flexible model that is not tied to one Incoterm.
