Таможенник:

Разрешите взглянуть на Ваше кольцо?... Я впишу в

 

декларацию, что на кольце нет пробы. Вот Ваша

 

декларация. Можете идти. Мы приносим извинения за

 

беспокойство.

Пассажир:

Это моя вина.

Таможенник:

Вы знаете, что Вы должны сохранить декларацию до

 

отъезда? Если Вы ее потеряете, то у Вас могут быть

 

неприятности при выезде из страны.

Dialogue 7.

 

Таможенник:

Вы из Великобритании?

Пассажир:

Да, сэр.

Таможенник:

Я думаю, Вы лондонец.

Пассажир:

Нет, не совсем. Я живу в Дербшире на маленькой

 

ферме.

Таможенник:

Эта птичка едет с Вами?

Пассажир:

Да, конечно

Таможенник:

У Вас есть с собой ветеринарный сертификат?

Пассажир:

Да, вот он.

Таможенник:

Извините, но на нем нет подписи ветеринара.

Пассажир:

Не думаю, что это так важно. Это просто домашняя

 

птица. Я уверен, она никому не повредит.

Таможенник:

Как раз наоборот. Даже один кусочек какого-нибудь

 

фрукта, один кусочек колбасы или одна птичка может

 

быть средством перенесения в страну вредных

 

насекомых-паразитов или заболеваний. Мне очень

 

жаль. Мне придется попросить Вас оставить Вашего

 

любимца здесь. Я приглашу ветеринарного инспектора,

 

240

 

который определит, не болен ли Ваш попугай.

Пассажир:

Это очень неудобно!

Таможенник:

К сожалению, это обязательно. Передайте мне,

 

пожалуйста, Вашу клетку.

Пассажир:

Это невозможно. Я не могу оставить моего попугая

 

здесь!

Таможенник:

Успокойтесь! Надеюсь, инспекция не займет много

 

времени.

Пассажир:

Я совершенно не согласен с Вашими правилами.

Таможенник:

Вы можете соглашаться или не соглашаться. Сколько

 

лет Вашему попугаю?

Пассажир:

Я наследовал этого попугая от моего прадедушки. Ему

 

около ста лет.

Таможенник:

Вы не преувеличиваете?

Пассажир:

Нет, абсолютно нет.

Таможенник:

Тогда Вам не нужно показывать его ветеринарному

 

инспектору.

Пассажир:

Почему?

Таможенник:

Разве Вы не знаете, что в соответствии с таможенными

 

правилами запрещено вывозить из страны предметы

 

антиквариата?

Dialogue 8.

Мистер Ну, вот мы и на месте. Самолет – через час, так что у Кэмпбэлл: нас еще много времени.

взвесить багаж. Давайте я помогу Вам нести чемодан.

Ничего, спасибо. Носильщик позаботится о чемодане, а

Кэмпбэлл:

я понесу эту сумку (к служащему). Какой вес

 

разрешено брать в самолет?

Таможенник:

Поскольку Вы летите туристским классом, сэр, вес

 

Ваших вещей не должен превышать 20 кг. Вам

 

придется платить за каждый лишний килограмм.

Мистер

Думаю, мои вещи не будут весить так много... Видите?

Кэмпбэлл:

Всего 16 килограмм. Можно мне взять эту сумку с

 

собой?

Таможенник:

Конечно. А чемодан будет отправлен в багажное

 

отделение. Подождите в зале ожидания, пожалуйста.

 

Вы услышите объявление о вылете Вашего рейса и

 

месте назначения.

Мистер

Хорошо. До свиданья.

Кэмпбэлл:

 

Таможенник:

До свидания и счастливого пути!

Мистер

Ну вот, у нас есть немного времени, чтобы обсудить

Робертсон:

вопросы оборудования для нашего проекта. Я имею в

 

виду то, что мы везем большой объем оборудования и

 

нам придется пойти на большие затраты времени и

 

средств, чтобы выполнить таможенные формальности.

Мистер

Я согласен, на это уйдет много времени. А что Вы

Кэмпбэлл:

предлагаете?

Мистер

Если Вы получите разрешение на беспошлинный

Робертсон:

импорт оборудования для проекта, это облегчит дело.

Мистер

Хорошо. Это звучит убедительно. Я полагаю, моя

Кэмпбэлл:

фирма согласится проследить за таможенной очисткой.

3.4.3. Incoterms

Read the descriptions of these INCOTERMS and complete them with the correct name in each case.49

1. … means that the seller's only responsibility is to make the goods available at his or her premises. The buyer bears the full cost and risk involved in transporting the goods to their destination.

2.… means that the seller's obligations cease when the goods are made available to the buyer at a named place in the country of destination. The seller pays for customs formalities but not for customs duty. The term can be used for any mode of transport.

3.… (named place of destination ) is the same as CPT but the seller also pays for insurance during carriage.

4.… (named port of shipment) means that the seller's obligations are fulfilled when the goods have been placed alongside the ship on the quay. The buyer is liable for all costs and risks of damage from that moment. Unlike FOB this term requires the buyer to clear the goods for export. The buyer is responsible for obtaining any export or import licence.

5.… (named port of destination). This term can only be used for sea and inland waterway transport. The seller must pay for the transport used to bring the goods to the named port but is not liable for risks from the moment the goods pass the ship's rail in the port of shipment.

In the case of roll-on/roll-off or container traffic, when the ship's rail is irrelevant, it is better to use the СРT term.

6.… (named place) means that the seller fulfils his or her obligation when the goods (cleared for export) are handed over to the carrier named by the purchaser. In the case of rail and road transport, delivery is completed when the goods have been loaded. For sea transport, delivery is complete when the seller has taken the goods to the transport terminal.

7.… is the same as СFR except that the seller has to arrange and pay for marine insurance for any risks during transit to the named port of destination.

In the case of roll-on/roll-off or container traffic, when the ship's rail is irrelevant, it is better to use the CIP terms.

8.… (named place of destination) means that the seller pays for transport to the destination. The risks and costs are then transferred to the buyer when the

49 Strutt P. Longman Business English Usage / P. Strutt. – Longman Group UK, 2001. – 321 p. – P. 114–116. These descriptions provide the most important information about each term. They are not full definitions.

246

goods have been given to the carrier. This term is suitable for any kind of transport including multimodal transport.

9.… is the same as DES but the seller is also responsible for unloading the cleared goods onto the quay or wharf. The contract should make it clear whether or not the seller pays duty, VAT, etc.

10.… (named port of shipment ). The goods are loaded on board by the seller at a port named in the contract. The risk of loss or damage passes to the buyer when the goods pass the ship's rail. The buyer is responsible for the transport costs from this port to the destination. However, it is the seller who has to obtain any export licence or documentation necessary for the goods to leave the country. In the case of roll-on/roll-off or container traffic, when the ship's rail is irrelevant, it is better to use the FCA term.

11.… means that the seller's obligations are fulfilled when the goods have arrived at the frontier. It is recommended that contracts should specify which frontier, e.g. "Delivered at Franco-Italian frontier (Modane)". This term is most often used for rail or road transport but can apply to any mode.

12.The term … represents the seller's maximum obligation. All expenses are incurred by the seller until they arrive at destination. The term may be used for any mode of transport but is unsuitable if the seller cannot obtain an import licence.

13.… (named port of destination) can only be used for sea or inland waterway transport. The seller makes the goods (uncleared for importation) available to the buyer on board ship and bears all the costs and risks involved in bringing the goods to the port of destination.

3.4.4. Packaging

Good packaging is essential because it ensures that goods arrive at their destination in good condition. Therefore, the choice of packaging must suit the product, the means of carriage, handling facilities and any changes in climate during transport.

In some countries, import duties are assessed according to the gross weight of shipments, which includes packaging. Therefore, the heavier the packaging the higher the duties will be.
