DPU (Delivered at Place Unloaded)

Abbreviation: DPU

Delivered at Place Unloaded means the seller bears costs and risk until the goods are unloaded at the named destination. DPU is the only Incoterms 2020 rule that requires the seller to unload, and it replaced DAT from Incoterms 2010. The place need not be a terminal; it can be a warehouse or a project site. Choose DPU only if the seller can actually organise unloading at the destination. Import clearance remains with the buyer.
