Similarities:
1. Both CPT (Carriage Paid To) and CIP (Carriage and Insurance Paid To) are international trade terms used in the Incoterms rules.
2. Both terms involve the seller being responsible for arranging and paying for the transportation of the goods to a specified destination.
3. Both terms require the seller to deliver the goods to a carrier or freight forwarder for transportation.
Differences:
1. CPT only covers the cost of carriage, while CIP covers both carriage and insurance. Under CIP, the seller is also responsible for obtaining insurance coverage for the goods during transit.
2. In CPT, the risk of loss or damage to the goods transfers from the seller to the buyer once the goods are delivered to the carrier. In CIP, the risk transfers from the seller to the buyer once the goods are handed over to the carrier, but the seller remains responsible for insuring the goods during transit.
3. CIP is considered a more comprehensive term than CPT, as it includes insurance coverage for the goods in addition to transportation.

CIP (Carriage and Insurance Paid To)
- Meaning: In addition to the obligations under CPT, the seller also pays for insurance against loss or damage during transportation to the named destination.
