Under FOB transactions, the buyer is responsible for sending a ship to pick up the goods, and the seller should load the goods onto the vessel designated by the buyer at the port of shipment and within the specified period specified in the contract, and notify the buyer in a timely manner. The ship's side is the dividing line. After the goods cross the ship's side during loading, the risk borne by the seller is transferred to the buyer.
