在对外贸易中,包装起了很重要的作用。
恰当地来说,包装对于货物的作用就如同衣服对于人类。
包装不仅起到了保护的作用,还对货物的装卸、存储提供了方便,并可以防止货物失窃的发生。
此外,包装还能促进商品的销售。
包装可分为运输包装(通常称为外部包装)和销售包装(通常称作内部包装)。
运输包装主要是为了保证货物在运输过程中完好无损。
运输包装不仅仅要足够结实,从而避免货物的损坏,而且还要防盗、易于存储和装卸。
销售包装主要是为了促进销售。
在家庭用品的销售上,人们现在普遍认为包装的作用至关重要。
只要外表美观、易于携带并促进销售,销售包装外表可以五花八门,材料也可以各种各样。
另外还有一种包装称作“中性包装”。
这种包装外表没有货物原产国的标示,也没有原产商标,目的是逃避进口国的关税或满足买方的特殊要求。

外部包装必须突出明显的标识以便于货物的确认和运输。
出口包装主要有三种主要的标识:
(1)收货人的标识,包括收货人首写字母,通常写在正方形、圆形、三角形或菱形图案内,此外还要注明目的港;
(2)官方要求的所有正式标示。
例如,一些国家要求每件包装上都要标明货物的原产国、重量和尺寸;
(3)特殊的指示或警示标志。
例如,有关警示标识应印在包装上,以方便收货人和承运人,如“此端向上”、“请勿掉落”和“请于此处打开”等。
对内部包装的要求越来越高,主要集中在颜色鲜艳、设计新颖和易于携带这几个方面。
内部包装的主要目的是促进特殊商品的销售。
相关的合同上必须准确无误地规定包装方式、包装材料以及包装成本等细节问题,买卖双方应该严格遵守。
包装问题的规定应简明扼要。
任何对合同规定的有关包装问题的修改,双方都应商谈后再进行包装。
