For the recipient, “Door-to-Door” may sound great at first, as the shipment is brought to where they want it. However, you should be precise in phrasing the modalities of shipment. Unlike DDP or DAP, D2D is not part of the Incoterms, the international trade terms of the ICC (International Chamber of Commerce). For international shipments, the door-to-door shipping method without add-on leaves open, for example, who will take care of customs clearance at the destination. With our door-to-door transports, you are on the safe side. If required, we will gladly take care of the entire transport process, including pick-up, delivery and customs clearance.
