Tarneviisi

Tarneviisi is an Estonian term used in logistics and commerce to denote the delivery method or mode of delivery for goods and services. It appears in contracts, order confirmations, shipping policies, and product pages to specify how items will be delivered to the recipient.

Etymology: The word is a compound of tarne, meaning delivery or supply, and viisi, meaning way or method. In written Estonian, the form tarneviis or tarneviisi may appear depending on grammatical context.

Usage: Tarneviisi choices typically include options such as postal service, courier service, parcel locker, pick-up point, or freight transport. For digital goods, delivery methods may include electronic delivery such as download links or email delivery. The chosen tarneviisi often affects delivery time, cost, and where liability for the goods passes from seller to buyer.

Practical considerations: When selecting a tarneviisi, buyers and sellers consider speed, cost, reliability, tracking, insurance, and the logistics network. Terms may specify cut-off times, weekend handling, and what happens in case of loss or damage during transit. Some sellers offer multiple tarneviis and allow the customer to choose at purchase.
