Abstract(s)
O objetivo fundamental deste estudo é avaliar se os exportadores portugueses, clientes da Garland Transport Solutions, estão devidamente instruídos e preparados para a escolha e utilização dos Incoterms, bem como perceber o seu nível de conhecimento e compreensão sobre a temática.
A investigação inclui uma análise empírica junto de empresas portuguesas exportadoras, que, através da Garland, operam nos mercados extracomunitários do Reino Unido, Turquia e Suíça, procurando identificar tendências, lacunas de conhecimento e entender se os inquiridos estariam dispostos a obter uma formação sobre os Incoterms. Os resultados demonstram que, embora exista uma familiaridade generalizada com os Incoterms, nem todos os exportadores possuem o conhecimento técnico necessário para os aplicar corretamente, o que pode gerar riscos legais, logísticos e financeiros nas atividades comerciais das suas empresas.
Este estudo contribui para uma melhor compreensão da importância da correta aplicação dos Incoterms no contexto das exportações, sugerindo a necessidade de formação específica nesta área para reforçar a competitividade das empresas portuguesas no comércio internacional.
The main objective of this study is to assess whether Portuguese exporters, who are clients of Garland Transport Solutions, are adequately informed and prepared to select and use Incoterms, as well as to understand their level of knowledge and comprehension of the subject. The research includes an empirical analysis of Portuguese exporting companies that, through Garland, operate in the non-EU markets of the United Kingdom, Turkey, and Switzerland. It seeks to identify trends, knowledge gaps, and to understand whether the respondents would be willing to undertake training on Incoterms. The results show that although there is a general familiarity with Incoterms, not all exporters possess the technical knowledge required to apply them correctly, which may lead to legal, logistical, and financial risks in their companies’ commercial activities. This study contributes to a better understanding of the importance of the correct application of Incoterms in the context of exports, suggesting the need for specific training in this area to strengthen the competitiveness of Portuguese companies in international trade.
