Abstract

The international commercial terms (incoterms) are important documents for exporters and importers in minimizing risks during a series of international trades so that rights and obligations are still implemented. Various incoterms documents have their respective functions. The involvement of third-party logistics is an important key in minimizing risk, and costs, and creating efficiencies. This study was conducted to examine the selection of incoterms and the involvement of third-party logistics (3PL) in export and import logistics activities. The method used in the research was carried out by means of a literature study with various sources to examine intensely related to incoterms and 3PL. We find that the synergy between the selection of incoterms documents and the involvement of 3PL parties can support the performance of export and import logistics activities. In addition, the involvement of these two things can reduce risks, and costs, and increase the efficiency of export and import activities.
