fuvarban

Fuvarban is a Hungarian adverb meaning that goods or shipments are currently in transport, i.e., being carried from one location to another. It is used in logistics, trade, and shipping to indicate a status of an item that has left the seller or consignor but has not yet been delivered to the buyer or recipient. The phrase is commonly found in documents, notices, and reports describing the current phase of a shipment.

Etymology: fuvar means transport or carriage, and the suffix -ban forms a locative meaning “in” or “within,” yielding the sense “in transport.”

Usage and context: In logistics and commerce, fuvarban denotes that the goods are in the process of transit. It is distinct from states such as received, delivered, or stored. The designation can have practical implications for coordination, insurance, and liability, but the exact effects depend on the terms of the contract, applicable law, and incoterms used in the transaction. Related terms include fuvarlevel (bill of lading), fuvarozó (carrier), and szállítás (shipping).

Examples:

- A termékek fuvarban vannak, és a becsült érkezés holnap.

- A fuvarban lévő áru biztosítása lefedi a szállítás ideje alatt felmerülő kockázatokat.
