The acronym "FOB" is used for international shipping. It stands for "Free on Board" and means that the shipper only pays for costs for the ship and the insurance cost. The freight charges are paid by the buyer.

"Free On Board" is basically the origin point for your freight. It means the seller will pay to take the product to a shipping location and put it on board a vehicle--after that, freight costs are yours.
