They are engaging their own chosen providers and adding a significant administrative markup (often 15-25% or more) to the final price to cover their risk. The buyer has zero transparency into these bundled costs.<\/p><p>When a Japanese buyer accepts DAP Incoterms:<\/p><ul><li><p><b>Cost Control:<\/b> The buyer uses their <i>own<\/i> trusted Japanese customs broker, whose fees are known and competitive.<\/p><\/li><li><p><b>Cost Transparency:<\/b> The buyer sees the <i>exact<\/i> duty and 10% JCT bill from customs. There are no hidden markups.<\/p><\/li><li><p><b>Compliance Control:<\/b> As a Japanese company, the buyer is already registered to handle JCT. The process is routine.<\/p><\/li><\/ul><p>In short, DAP allows the buyer to unbundle the costs, avoid the seller&#8217;s DDP premium, and maintain full control over the most critical part of the import process.
