信用证的翻译

letter of credit翻译
信用证（letter of credit）是指由买方的银行以买方的名义，向卖
方的银行发出的一种有关国际贸易的支付方式。

它的原则是：买方的银行
承诺支付给卖方指定金额的钱，只要卖方能够提供指定的货品或服务证明，并满足其他条款。

信用证的出现有助于加强买卖双方的信任，确保交易的
安全性。

信用证是保证国际贸易支付的重要手段。

买卖双方中，买方希望确认
购买的货物是否满足约定标准，也希望卖方能够按时到货；而卖方希望保
证货款的安全，也希望能够与买方建立更长久的合作关系。

信用证能够双
方都满足其所需。

一般地，一个信用证包含了四方的信息，即卖方和买方，以及卖方和
买方的银行。

在贸易过程中，卖方向买方发货的时候，卖方的银行必须先
获得买方银行的确认，买方的银行才会向卖方支付货款。

卖方银行开出的
信用证是对卖方的一种担保，如果买方的银行没有严格按照信用证的条款
支付，卖方的银行有权要求买方支付损失。

所以，信用证是保障国际贸易
交易安全及双方利益的重要保证措施。

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。
