What are the obligations of the buyer regarding the item sold in terms of its arrival and expenses?
The buyer is obligated to receive the item upon its arrival at the agreed-upon port and bear any sums due on the item during its transport as well as the expenses of discharge upon its arrival. However, if the carrier has already obtained such sums and expenses at the port of shipping or if it is agreed in the sale contract, then these expenses will be borne by the seller (the sale being CIF until discharge).
