商務(wù)合同條款和翻譯的留意事項(xiàng)及范例2023-5-3118:52 大小公司都會(huì)有自己的合同制式，但是清楚各項(xiàng)條款還是必需的。常見的書面文本有四種：Contract〔合同〕,Confirmation〔確議書〕,Agreement〔協(xié)議〕和Memorandum〔備忘錄〕。前兩者多用與商業(yè)中，其條款要具體切正規(guī)。而備忘錄多用與團(tuán)體和政府部門。合同要有正本〔Original〕和副本〔Copy〕。通常承受的格式是三局部：首部〔Head〕，主體〔Body〕和尾部〔End〕。下面我們就列出一份通常承受的比較完整的合同條款：一、首部合同的名稱合同的編號(hào)簽約日期簽約地點(diǎn)買賣雙方的名稱、地址、聯(lián)系方式序言二、主體貨物的名稱條款〔CommodityandSpecifications〕貨物的品質(zhì)條款〔Quality〕數(shù)量條款〔Quantity〕價(jià)格條款〔Price〕裝運(yùn)時(shí)間條款〔TimeofShipment〕保險(xiǎn)條款〔Insurance〕包裝條款〔Packing〕運(yùn)輸標(biāo)志/嘜頭〔ShippingMark〕保證條款〔GuaranteeofQuality〕檢驗(yàn)索賠條款〔InspectionandClaims〕支付條款〔TermsofPayment〕運(yùn)輸方式〔TermsofShipment〕不行抗力條款〔ForceMajeure〕延期交貨和懲罰條款〔LateDeliveryandPenalty〕仲裁條款〔Arbitration〕三、尾部〔Remarks〕有效日期所遵守法律〔也可依據(jù)國際規(guī)定〕雙方簽名合同的備注局部貨物的名稱貨物的名稱必需準(zhǔn)確、科學(xué)、標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，通常要包括品牌、屬性和用途三個(gè)要素。比方：護(hù)彤小兒感冒顆粒，其中護(hù)彤是商品的品牌，小兒指屬性，而感冒顆粒則說明用途。品質(zhì)條款貨物的品質(zhì)通常不簡潔向?qū)Ψ奖磉_(dá)，但是我們也可以從下面幾個(gè)方面來呈現(xiàn)：1〕憑樣品〔bysample〕2〕憑標(biāo)準(zhǔn)〔bystandard〕3〕憑品牌〔bybrand〕4〕憑產(chǎn)地〔byorigin〕5〕憑規(guī)格〔byspecification〕6〕憑文字說明〔bydescription〕我們來看一個(gè)例子：ChineseGroundnut,F.A.Q.Moisture〔max13%〕,Admixture〔max5%〕,OilContent〔min44%〕。其中F.A.Q.是一個(gè)專業(yè)術(shù)語，是FairAverageQuality的縮寫，意思就是“良好平均品質(zhì)”。數(shù)量條款計(jì)量單位：重量：用于一般的自然產(chǎn)品〔羊毛，棉花，谷物，礦產(chǎn)品及局部工業(yè)制品〕。常ton-M/T〕；長噸〔longton〕；短噸〔shortton〕；等個(gè)數(shù)：雜貨及工業(yè)成品，如：成衣、文具、紙張、玩具等。常用單位：件piecepc〕；套〔set〕；打〔dozen〕；羅〔gross-gr〕；令〔ream-rm〕；卷〔rollcoil〕；等〔sq.m.〕；〔sq.ft.〕；平方碼〔sq.yd.〕長度：布匹，塑料布，電線電纜，繩索等。常用單位：米〔m〕；英尺〔ft〕；碼〔yd〕〔liter-L〕；加侖〔gallon-gal〕；蒲式耳〔bushel-bul〕體積：木材，鋼材等，要用立方Cubic來表示。常用單位：立方米〔cu.m.〕；立方英尺〔cu.ft.〕；立方碼〔cu.yd.〕們來看一下：凈重—netweight；毛重—grossweight；皮重—tare.經(jīng)?？吹絞rossfornet這樣的說明，其實(shí)這個(gè)意思是說“以毛作凈”，也就是用毛重當(dāng)作凈重對待。4.價(jià)格條款價(jià)格條款中要包括計(jì)價(jià)單位，貨幣名稱，單位價(jià)格金額和價(jià)格術(shù)語。比方：100.CIF.Londoneach.dozen這段描述的意思是到倫敦港的到岸價(jià)是每打100英鎊。其中，CIF是貿(mào)易術(shù)語，是指“到岸價(jià)格”，是CostInsuranceandFreight的縮寫。〔貿(mào)易術(shù)語通常用來解釋貿(mào)易運(yùn)輸風(fēng)險(xiǎn)轉(zhuǎn)移或者賣方費(fèi)用問題，共有13種，一般都要加上裝運(yùn)港或者目的港等的名稱。〕TimeofShipment=裝運(yùn)時(shí)間1〕限定裝船時(shí)間；2〕限定最終日期；3〕限定日〔在收到信用證〕Insurance=保險(xiǎn)條款保險(xiǎn)條款=〔theinsured〕+向誰辦理〔theinsurer〕+投保險(xiǎn)別〔coverage〕+投保金額〔insuranceamount〕+〔責(zé)任條款〕〔generalrisk〕〔additionalrisks〕是必選的，附加險(xiǎn)是用來保證貨物安全，是雙方協(xié)商選的。必選的根本險(xiǎn)按重要性排列為F.P.A平安險(xiǎn)WithFreefromParticularAveragW.P.A.〔水漬險(xiǎn)WithFreefromWaterAverage〕和A.R.〔一切險(xiǎn)AllRisks〕。常見的附加險(xiǎn)也分為一般附加險(xiǎn)〔generaladditionalrisk〕和特別附加險(xiǎn)〔Specialadditionalrisk〕。一般附加險(xiǎn)包括以下幾種：Theft,PilferageandNon-DeliveringRisk〔T.P.N.D.〕偷竊提貨不著險(xiǎn)FreshWaterandRainDamageRisk淡水雨淋險(xiǎn)ShortageRisk短量險(xiǎn)IntermixtureandContaminationRisk混雜玷污險(xiǎn)LeakageRisk滲漏險(xiǎn)ClashandBreakageRisk碰損裂開險(xiǎn)TaintofOdorRisk串味險(xiǎn)SweatandHeatingRisk受潮受熱險(xiǎn)9〕HookDamageRisk鉤損險(xiǎn)10〕BreakageofPackingRisk包裝破損險(xiǎn)11〕RustRisk銹損險(xiǎn)特別附加險(xiǎn)包括以下幾種：1〕WarRisk戰(zhàn)斗險(xiǎn)2〕StrikeRisk罷工險(xiǎn)3〕OnDeckRisk艙面險(xiǎn)ImportDutyRisk進(jìn)口關(guān)稅險(xiǎn)FailuretoDeliverRisk交貨不到險(xiǎn)RejectionRisk拒收險(xiǎn)AflataxionRisk黃曲霉素險(xiǎn)〔指花生、大豆等發(fā)霉?！惩ǔ１ｋU(xiǎn)條款要寫成：Sb.insurethegoodswith承保人against險(xiǎn)種for/on
