Last checked · ICC Austria · ICC Finland · ICC Germany
Is there an Incoterms® 2025 or 2026?
No. People search for those editions, but they do not exist. Contracts should keep naming the edition they use, e.g. “FCA [place] Incoterms® 2020”.

Also worth knowing
ICC's drafting group has eight members.
Topics raised publicly by ICC France for the revision include rising tariff barriers, compliance demands, digital trade, transport and customs documents, containerised transport and multimodal transport.
National committees in Finland, France, Germany and Belgium have set up working groups to collect industry input.
