Freight Prepaid refers to a shipping arrangement where the shipper pays the freight charges in advance before the cargo is transported. This ensures that the carrier receives payment upfront, and the consignee does not need to pay for transport upon delivery. In logistics, freight prepaid simplifies payment management, reduces risk of non-payment, and provides clarity in cost allocation between shippers and receivers. Proper documentation and confirmation of payment are required to ensure smooth processing and avoid disputes.
