DAT (Delivered at Terminal)

DAT, short for “Delivered at Terminal”, is an international trade term used in procurement agreements. It refers to a sale in which goods are delivered when they are unloaded at the agreed upon terminal destination. This term implies that the seller carries out all of the transportation costs and delivers the goods unladen to the named terminal. In this instance, the buyer will be responsible for any further costs related to picking up and transporting goods.
