what does CIT mean in International Shipping?
540670
International shippers and banks generally use the standardized shipping terms called Incoterms.  There is no Incoterm given for CIT; however, it could be a deviation of CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight), e.g. Cost, Insurance, and "Transport", or something like that.  CIF means that the contract cost includes these three items, delivered to the port of destination.  It is because of these deviations and the great importance of clear communication that Incoterms are normally required by international banks in order to avoid conflicts when demand of payment is being made, like when drawing on a letter of credit.\n\nIt could also possibly be the International Railway Transport Committee headquartered in Bern, Switzerland.  It "was founded in 1902 as a federation of railway and shipping companies, infrastructure operators and road hauliers, numbering 300 members today".  They are tasked to provide standardized legal relations between parties in rail transport in member countries.

I haven't come across that specific term before but I expect it is the net of inward investment less outward investment.\nI'm not sure if or how it might equal net exports.

They are military shipping addresses for military and DoD workers stationed overseas.  They are the same as a U.S. address.  It works like a post office box back in the States.  I have one here in Japan and can send and recieve from a U.S. Post office here on base.  It's very handy.

Internationalism is the principle wherein trade between countries are no longer subject to individual country laws but will be governed by a uniform law for all countries.  Multinational corporations will benefit from this system because of acceptance in other countries.  Local corporations will suffer from this predicament due to less exposure.

from wikipedia:\nFree On Board (FOB) is an Incoterm -- also commonly but incorrectly referred to as "Freight on Board". It means that the seller pays for transportation of the goods to the port of shipment, plus loading costs. The buyer pays freight, insurance, unloading costs and transportation from the port of destination to the factory. The passing of risks occurs when the goods pass the ship's rail at the port of shipment. Internationally the term specifies the port of loading, e.g. "FOB New York" or "FOB Vancouver".

To move goods from a seller to a buyer, someone has to pay for transporting the goods, arrange the transportation, clear the goods through Customs, pay any appropriate duty and taxes, and then unload them at their final destination.  Incoterms define at what point responsibility for goods transfers from the seller to the buyer.\n\nBy having an internationally recognized definition of when that transfer occurs--which is what Incoterms do--you reduce disagreements and misunderstandings of who is responsible for what.

The seller delivers the goods into the custody of the first carrier, and this is where risk passes from seller to buyer. The buyer pays for the transportation.\n\n(In other words... When the carrier gets it, your responsable from then on.)\n\nbtw...  It actually means FREE CARRIER

The Plimsoll line is the mark on the hull of a ship that shows where the waterline is when the ship is loaded to full capacity according to the condition of the water at the point of loading.\n\nThe official name is the International Load Line, since the Plimsoll line is an international load limit standard. It was named after Samuel Plimsoll, who instigated the passage of the Merchant Shipping Act of 1875, which established the marking of a load line on every cargo ship. This was to prevent the practice of launching deliberately overloaded "coffin ships", which were intended to sink so that the owner could collect the insurance money.\n\nThe letters on the load line have the following meanings:\n\nTF - Tropical Fresh Water \nF - Fresh Water \nT - Tropical Sea Water \nS - Summer Sea Water \nW - Winter Sea Water \nWNA - Winter North Atlantic \nThe Plimsoll shoe is named for the shoe's horizontal lines, which resemble the Plimsoll line.
