Shipment
Shipment装运Brief Introduction在对外贸易中，按时装运进出口货物，及时将货物从厂方运至目的地，对完成进出口交易、满足市场需要、减少货物积压和提高商品的竞争能力，都起着积极重要的作用。
特别是对某些鲜活商品或季节性商品的运输，更要抢时间、争速度，及时完成运输任务，以免造成经济上的损失和信誉上的不良影响。
如果装卸不及时，运输拖延，到货慢，就会影响商品的销路，甚至失去市场。
交货是指卖方按照同买方约定的时间、地点和运输方式将合同规定的货物交付给买方或其代理人。
装运一般是指将货物装上运输工具，它与交货是两个不同的概念。
但是，在国际商务中，由于采用F.O.B、C.F.R 和 C.I.F 三种价格术语，卖方只要根据合同的有关规定将货物装上船，取得提单，就算交货。
提单签发日期亦即为交货日。
因此，装运一词常被用来代替交货的概念。
这种凭单交货被称为象征性交货。
（实际交货是指货物运抵目的地，因而，装运时间与交货时间是并不一致的。
）凭单交货时，装运期和交货期是一致的。
在买卖合同中，合理地规定装运期（交货期）是很重要的。
装运期（交货期）可分为三种：定期装运、近期装运和不定期装运。
Basic Expressions1. How long does it usually take you to make a delivery?通常你方需要多长时间交货？2. As a rule, we deliver all our orders within three months afterre ceipt of the covering L/C.一般说来，我们在收到有关的信用证后三个月内可交货。
3. Could you possibly advance shipment further more?你方能不能再提前一点交货？4. I hope that the goods can be shipped promptly after you get our L/C.我希望你们能在收到我方信用证后马上装运。
