Under EXW, the buyer handles export clearance in Bangladesh and import clearance at destination, while the seller only makes the goods available. This guide explains who files each declaration, who pays duties and taxes, and how to handle the case where the buyer has no local presence at origin.
Yes, EXW can be used for air freight, but it is often the wrong fit: the buyer must arrange export clearance, airport delivery and the flight from a country where they may have no local presence. FCA at the departure airport usually gives the same buyer control with the seller handling export clearance.
EXW gives importers full control over freight and costs, but also full responsibility from the factory gate. Use this decision guide to test whether you can clear export, load and insure the goods, or whether FCA or FOB fits better.
