DDP

DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) is the most seller-responsible Incoterm. The seller pays for everything: cost, freight, insurance, customs clearance at destination, import duties, taxes, and final delivery to the buyer's named premises. The seller bears all risk until the goods are unloaded at the buyer's location.

DDP simplifies trade for the buyer (who receives goods at their door with no further costs) but is operationally challenging for the seller — requiring local customs broker arrangements, duty payment, and last-mile logistics in the destination country.
