Yes. DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) is a shipping incoterm that says the seller pays the duty, but it doesn't designate who the legal Importer of Record is. The carrier or freight forwarder will often demand an IoR be named on the entry regardless of who's paying. Brands sometimes assume DDP means "no IoR needed" and then discover the issue when a shipment is held at customs.
