Short answer: For EU shipments we usually work with FCA, CPT or DAP terms. You may collect the goods with your forwarder or request delivery to your EU destination. We follow standard Incoterms rules while remaining flexible to your logistics setup.

This article summarises the Incoterms most commonly used by EU importers when purchasing Isolon, Warmlex and Isolontape materials from LIRIDA-M. It helps buyers choose the model that fits their logistics process.

Main Incoterms used for EU deliveries

Most European clients work with one of the following terms when arranging shipments from Belarus:

  • FCA (Free Carrier) – buyer collects the goods from our warehouse in Belarus using their own carrier or forwarder. Suitable for clients with established import routines.
  • CPT (Carriage Paid To) – we organise transport to the agreed EU destination, while risk transfers to the buyer after handover to the first carrier. Works well when you prefer LIRIDA-M to manage linehaul.
  • DAP (Delivered At Place) – delivery to your warehouse or logistics hub inside the EU. You handle customs clearance and VAT in your country. Convenient for buyers without transport arrangements.

Note: We do not offer DDP. Import customs clearance and VAT settlement always remain on the EU buyer’s side.

How to choose the right model

Your choice depends on how much of the logistics chain you wish to handle:

Use FCA if you prefer full control and already work with a trusted forwarder;
Choose CPT if you want predictable transport arranged by LIRIDA-M;
Choose DAP if you only need final delivery to your warehouse and can handle customs formalities yourself.

Important: LIRIDA-M is not a customs broker or tax advisor. We can share general practices, but the importer and their customs representative make the final decisions on HS codes, origin and VAT.

Frequently asked questions

  • Can you recommend a transport company? Yes, we can share contacts of carriers frequently used by our EU clients. The contract, however, remains between you and the carrier.
  • Do you provide export documents under all Incoterms? Yes. Regardless of the term, we prepare the standard export set: invoice, packing list and supporting documents as agreed.
