„DEQ (Delivered Ex Quay - Duty Paid - ...named port of destination)“

The seller fulfils his obligation to deliver when he has made the goods available to the buyer on the quay (wharf) at the named port of destination, cleared for importation. The seller has to bear all risks and costs including duties, taxes and other charges of delivering the goods thereto. (Note: If the parties wish the buyer to clear the goods for importation and pay the duty, the words “duty unpaid” should be used instead of “duty paid”, and other costs of importation can also be excluded from the seller’s obligations if this is made clear by adding words to this effect.)
