ex quay (named port of importation)目的港码头交货 • 此为以交货地点为标准的价格术语之一,但不是广泛使用的一种。规定这种价格时,应明确进口税有卖方还是买方负担。 • 在美国这一术语的名称为ex dock或ex pier;在英联邦则用ex wharf. • Ex quay, duties on buyer’s account (named port of importation) 目的港码头交货/进口税有买方负担 • 这一价格条件与ex quay, duty paid (named port of importation(“目的港码头交货/已完税”)的唯一区别在于买方(而非卖方)必须自己和自费取得进口许可证,并负担任何进口捐税和费用。

As a rule, we ask for payment by L/C. • But, in view of our friendly relations, we will, as an exceptional case, accept payment for your trial order on D/P basis. In other words we will draw on you by documentary draft at sight, through our bank, on collection basis, without L/C. • We hope the above payment terms will be acceptable to you and expect to receive your trial order in due course. • We look forward to your early reply. • Sincerely,
We received your letter of Dec. 29, 1988 and appreciate your intention to promote the sales of our vacuum cleaner in your country. • 贵方1988年12月29日来函已收到,对贵方在本国努力推销我方真空吸尘器深表感谢。 • promote the sales of…推销…… =(push…sales) • Chinese foreign trade corporations also make use of the international fairs as channels to display and promote the sales of Chinese products. • 中国的外贸公司,也利用国际博览会作为展出和推销中国产品的渠道。 • It would be impossible for us to push any sales at such a price. • 按这种价格,我方无法推销。
We regret that we are unable to consider your request for payment on D/A terms. As a rule, we ask for payment by L/C. • 很遗憾,我方不能考虑贵方以承兑交单的方式付款的要求。通常,我方要求以信用证来付款。 • payment on D/A terms承兑交单的付款方式 • D/A (documents against acceptance)承兑交单 • 这属于托收方式。由出口商开具汇票(draft)连同装运单据通过银行托收。进口商只须承兑汇票即可取得单证,待汇票到期时再付款。采用这种方式,出口商所担风险较大。如果进口上取得货运单据后,到期拒不付款,出口商要遭受货款两空的损失。只有出口商非常信任进口商资信的情况下才能使用。

In other words we will draw on you by documentary draft at sight, through our bank, on collection basis, without L/C. • 但,鉴于贵我双方之间的友好关系,作为例外,我方愿接受贵方以付款交单方式来支付的试订单,换句话说,我方将不用信用证而是通过我方银行凭即期跟单汇票以托收的方式向贵方收款。 • in view of 鉴于…… • In view of the increased demand for our products, we wish to appoint an agent. • 鉴于对我方产品的需求有所增加,我方想委派一家代理商。 • In view of the fact that all other customers have accepted this price, we cannot reduce it any further. • 鉴于其他客户皆已接受此价格,我方不能再降价。
. • D/P (documents against payment)付款交单 • 进口商不开信用证,由出口商开出汇票连同装运单证通过银行向进口商收款,进口商必须付清货款才能取得单证。按支付时间的不同,付款交单又可分即期付款交单(D/P at sight) 和远期付款交单(D/P after sight)。这种方式属于托收(collection)。如果日后进口商到期拒付,则与银行无关,应由出口商自己承担风险。其性质与承兑交单差不多,应谨慎。 • We hope the above payment terms will be acceptable to you and expect to receive your trial order in due course. • We look forward to your early reply. • 希望以上付款方式能为贵方接受并盼及时收到贵方试定单。 • 盼早复。 • in due course (of time) = in due time = duly在适当的时候(常常指没有耽误的意思) • We have received your Sales Confirmation No. 2002 in due course. • 我方已及时收到贵方第2002号售货确认书。 • If you find any stipulations therein disagreeable, please advise us in due time. • 如对其中任何规定有异议,请及时告知
