成交函
成交函
在进出口交易中,一方的发盘或还盘被另一方接受,合同关系即宜告成立。
同时,为了便于履约和监督,双方通常会签订一份合同(采购确认书或销售确认书)。
当出口方向进口方寄送销售确认书的时候,往往会附上一封信,这封信就是我们这里所说的出口成交函。
成交函是一种典型的通知类信函,在写法上与我们在前几章中提及的建交函、发盘函和还盘函有所不同。
1.成交函最主要目的是要告诉对方销售合同已寄出,希望其予以会签。
常用的语句是:
wearesendingyouourSalesConfirmationNo.990123induplicate.Pleasesignitandreturnonecopyforourfile.
2.当然,作为成交函,我们通常还会对本次成交表示高兴,并希冀合同顺利履行。
例如:
Wearegladthatthroughourmutualeffortfinallywehavereachedagreement.
Webelievethefirsttransactionwillturnouttobeprofitabletobothofus.
Youmayrestassuredthatweshalleffectshipmentstrictlyascontracted.
3.另外,在信用证交易中,信用证能否及时开到出口方直接影响着出口能否按时履约交货。
所以拟写成交函时,特别是在距规定到证日较近的情况下,我们还会加上一些催促对方尽早开立信用证的语句。
例如:
