25、装运港）。此术语是指卖方在约定的装运港将货物交到买方指定的船上。按照2000年通则规定，此术语只能适用于海运和内河航运。但是，如合同当事人不采用越过船舷交货，则采用FCA术语更为适宜。 (一) 买卖双方基本义务的划分按国际商会对FOB的解释，买卖双方各自承担的基本义务。概括起来，可作如下划分：1卖方义务(1)在合同规定的时间或期限内，在装运港，按照习惯方式将货物交到买方指派的船上，并及时通知买方。(2)自负风险和费用，取得出口许可证或其他官方批准证件。在需要办理海关手续时，办理货物出口所需的一切海关手续。(3)负担货物在装运港越过船舷为止的一切费用和风险；(4)自付费用提供证明货物已交至船上的

26、通常单据。如果买卖双方约定采用电子通讯，则所有单据均可被具有同等效力的电子数据交换(EDI)信息所代替。2买方义务(1)自负风险和费用取得进口许可证或其他官方批准的证件。在需要办理海关手续时，办理货物进口以及经由他国过境的一切海关手续，并支付有关费用及过境费；(2)负责租船或订舱，支付运费，并给予卖方关于船名、装船地点和要求交货时间的充分的通知；(3)负担货物在装运港越过船舷后的一切费用和风险；(4)接受卖方提供的有关单据，受领货物，并按合同规定支付货款。(二) 1941年美国对外贸易定义修订本对FOB的解释1941年美国对外贸易定义修订本对FOB的解释分为六种，其中只有：指定装运港船上交货”

27、 (FOB Vessel，named port of shipment”)与2000年通则对FOB术语的解释相近。所以，1941年美国对外贸易定义修订本对FOB的解释与运用，同国际上的一般解释与运用有明显的差异，这主要表现在下列几方面：1美国惯例把FOB笼统地解释为在某处某种运输工具上交货，其适用范围很广，因此，在同美国、加拿大等国的商人按FOB订立合同时，除必须标明装运港名称外，还必须在FOB后加上“船舶”(Vessel)字样。如果只订为“FOB SanFrancisco”而漏写“Vessel”字样,则卖方只负责把货物运到旧金山城内的任何处所，不负责把货物运到旧金山港口并交到船上。 2在风险

28、划分上，不是以装运港船舷为界，而是以船舱为界，即卖方负担货物装到船舱为止所发生的一切丢失与损坏。3在费用负担上，规定买方要支付卖方协助提供出口单证的费用以及出口税和因出口而产生的其他费用。（三）FOB的变形在按FOB条件成交时，卖方要负责支付货物装上船之前的一切费用。但各国对于“装船”的概念没有统一的解释，有关装船的各项费用由谁负担，各国的惯例或习惯做法也不完全一致。如果采用班轮运输，船方管装管卸，装卸费计入班轮运费之中，自然由负责租船的买方承担；而采用程租船运输，船方一般不负担装卸费用。这就必须明确装船的各项费用应由谁负担。为了说明装船费用的负担问题，双方往往在FOB术语后加列附加条件，这就

29、形成了FOB的变形。主要包括以下几种：1FOB Liner Tenns(FOB班轮条件)这一变形是指装船费用按照班轮的做法处理，即由船方或买方承担。所以，采用这一变形，卖方不负担装船的有关费用。2FOB Under Tackle(FOB吊钩下交货)指卖方负担费用将货物交到买方指定船只的吊钩所及之处，而吊装入舱以及其他各项费用，概由买方负担。3FOB Stowed(FOB理舱费在内)指卖方负责将货物装入船舱并承担包括理舱费在内的装船费用。理舱费是指货物人舱后进行安置和整理的费用。4FOB Trimmed(FOB平舱费在内)指卖方负责将货物装入船舱并承担包括平舱费在内的装船费用。平舱费是指对装入船舱的散装货物进行平整所需的费用。在许多标准合同中，为表明由卖方承担包括理舱费和平舱费在内的各项装船费用，常采用FOBST(FOB Stowed and Trimmed)方式。FOB的上述变形，只是为了表明装船费用由谁负担而产生的，并不改变FOB的交货地点以及风险划分的界限。2000年通则指出，通则对这些术语后的添加词句不提供任何指导规定，建议买卖双方应在合同中加以明确。-
