DOHA:  The International Chamber of Commerce-Qatar (ICC Qatar), in collaboration with the UK-based ‘London Institute of Banking and Finance’ (LIBF), will be hosting an educative and training workshop on the ICC’s Incoterms® 2020 rules, the language of international trade, which was launched recently during the ICC’s Centenary year in September 2019.

The Incoterms® 2020 rules will be providing certainty and clarity to businesses trading across borders everywhere. The one-day training programme will be addressed by Robert Ronai, a member of the Incoterms Drafting Group. Ronai has more than five decades of experience in a wide range of fields including, international banking and international trade.

The workshop will be held under the Patronage of Qatar Chamber and ICC Qatar Chairman Sheikh Khalifa bin Jassim Al Thani (pictured) on November 6, 2019 at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Doha. The training will begin at 9:00am and end at 16:00pm.

The training will be beneficial for individuals who deal with business transactions in buying and selling, freight forwarders, and consultants, among others. This comprehensive Incoterms 2020 training will enable attendees to obtain 6 PDUs from the LIBF.

Sheikh Khalifa stressed the ICC Qatar’s keenness on providing the Qatari business community with the latest ICC Incoterms to keep pace with the development of international trade.

Sheikh Khalifa affirmed that learning these updated terms and rules would help parties know their contractual obligations and avoid the risk of any legal complications, especially as they take account of the recent practices in international trade. In a press statement, ICC Qatar stressed the importance of these updated Incoterms 2020 rules which will be releasing after 10 years.
