信用证英语关键词解析与翻译梁雪松 郑 晶 (浙江大学宁波理工学院外语系,宁波市315041)[摘要]国际贸易中的信用证审证工作,需要的不仅仅是外贸专业水平,还需要较高水准的英语语言能力,对证内出现的关键英语词汇、短语、难句必要时须分而治之,准确把握;因为信用证就是钱,理解或翻译出错就会招致损失。
本文探讨的这些关键英文词的用法,以期有助于提高单证员的审证能力。
[关键词]信用证;审证;条款关键词[中图分类号]H 315.9[文献标识码]B[文章编号]1000-6141(2003)03-0068-03 在国际贸易中,进口人和出口人都不愿意把货或钱先交给对方,为了解决这一矛盾,避免风险,就出现了信用证付款的信用方式,即信用证(Lette r of Cr edit ,简称L /C )。
信用证支付方式是目前国际贸易中最主要的付款方式,我国目前近百分之七十的进出口货物都是靠信用证结汇完成的。
在对信用证的实际操作中,业务员由于专业及英语水平层次不一,对信用证特别条款理解不深或理解错误,给企业或所在单位造成不应有的损失的事情时有发生。
前些年的外贸公司都有一个储运部或报运部,这个部门的负责人还肩负着审核信用证各项条款的重任,从这个环节上就可看出审核信用证的重要性。
信用证实际上是任何一个外贸企业对外贸易最核心的环节!操作不好,很容易陷入被动和风险当中。
现在,民营企业、私企对外贸易逐年扩大,许多单位把储运或报运部给撤了,只剩下业务员一个人审证;信用证的操作风险也随之加大。
不熟练掌握信用证的基本功,没有较好的英语水平,是无法适应我国高速发展的外贸经济的。
14.4信用证的翻译信用证是由银行发行的证书,授权持证者可从开证行,其支行或其他有关银行或机构提取所述款项。
它作为贸易上最重要的信用保证方法,代表买方的外汇银行,接手买方的委托,保证其货款的支付。
万一买方付不出货款,根据契约规定,银行必须履行向卖方付款的责任。
信用证是保证卖方收到汇票后即可收取货款的信用文件。
在卖方将货物装船后,外汇银行代替买方,开立汇票给卖方;卖方带着汇票和装船单据,到自己往来的外汇银行办理结算而取得货款。
信用证由开证行(Opening Bank)通过通知行(Informing Bank)交给卖方。
装船后,有议付行(Negotiating Bank)结算后转回开证行。
14.4.1格式化和规范化信用证的句式虽然句中缺少一定的成分,但却独立成句。
例如:Latest shipment Sep.10, 2005. 最近装船时间为2005年9月10 日。
Shipment from Dalian to Nagoya. 从大连运往名古屋的货物。
Each document to show B/L number and date and to be dated not earlier than 7 days from B/L date. 显示提单编号和日期的每张信用证,其开具日期不得早于提单日期7天。
All correspondence to be sent to City Bank import services department. 请将所有的信件送到花旗银行进口部。
Transshipment prohibited. 禁止转运。
14.4.2 专业术语的使用信用证因为具有国际通用性,意义精确严谨,文体特色鲜明,因此常使用专业术语。
为了描述进出口流程的各个环节和与此相关的各类单据,信用证使用大量表意清楚的专业术语。
翻译时必须熟悉该专业知识和专业表达法,否则会贻笑大方。
比如有关信用证类别的词汇:documentary L/C 跟单信用证clean L/C 光票信用证reciprocal L/C 对开信用证irrevocable L/C 不可撤销信用证又如有关当事人的词汇:party 当事人applicant/principal 开证申请人beneficiary 受益人issuing bank 开证行再如表示单据的词汇:draft 汇票invoice 发票packing list 装箱单bill of lading(B/L) 提单inspection certificate 检验证书fumigation certificate 熏舱证书下面再举例说明:back-to-back (letter of) credit 背对背信用证/转开信用证bona fida holder 善意持有人议付行向受益人垫付资金、买入跟单汇票后,即成为汇票持有人,也就是善意持有人。
