Mold price is only half the landed cost. Incoterms decide who pays freight, insurance, and import clearance. RUUIPON ships custom silicone molds worldwide from Shenzhen at MOQ 50.
Quick answer: EXW = you arrange pickup; FOB = we deliver to port/airport; DDP = we deliver duty-paid if agreed. Pick based on your broker strength.
