How the FOB, CFR & CIF calculator works
Enter the product value for the shipment, then add packing, inland transport, export clearance, documents and origin handling to build the FOB value. Add international freight to move from FOB to CFR. Finally, add marine insurance to reach CIF.
The calculator supports two insurance methods. You can enter a fixed insurance amount, or an insurance percentage applied to CIF. When insurance is a percentage of CIF, the calculator solves the circular relationship rather than simply adding the percentage to CFR.
FOB CIF Calculator FAQs
What is the difference between FOB, CFR and CIF?
In a pricing build-up, FOB covers the seller-side costs required to place the goods on board as specified by the applicable term. CFR adds the cost of freight to the named destination port, while CIF adds marine insurance as well. The exact obligations should always be checked against the current Incoterms rules and your contract.
How do I calculate CFR from FOB?
For a planning calculation, CFR is typically modeled as FOB plus the international freight applicable to the shipment.
How is CIF calculated when insurance is a percentage of CIF?
If insurance is entered as a percentage of CIF, the relationship is CIF = CFR + insurance and insurance = CIF ร rate. The calculator solves this as CIF = CFR รท (1 โ rate), provided the rate is below 100%.
Can I calculate FOB price per unit?
Yes. Enter the shipment quantity and the calculator divides the total FOB, CFR and CIF values by the number of units to give comparable per-unit prices.
Does this calculator decide which Incoterm I should use?
No. It only builds indicative price scenarios. Your sales contract, buyer requirements, transport arrangement, risk allocation and current Incoterms rules determine the appropriate commercial term.
