DDU (DPU) cost calculation focuses on seller-paid expenses up to the destination (excluding import duties/taxes and buyer’s clearance costs). Sellers must accurately estimate transportation, unloading, and export-related fees while ensuring the buyer understands their responsibility for import costs. This term suits buyers with established import capabilities, as it shifts customs and duty liabilities to them, reducing the seller’s financial exposure compared to DDP.
