外贸函电

简介

英文:foreign correspondence

就是有着国际贸易关系的双方由于彼此的业务往来而产生的信件,但在信息化高度发达的今天,该信件并不局限于纸质信件,也可以是电子邮件、传真或MSN。

外贸函电最常用的内容:建立业务关系、询盘、发盘、回复、销售合同、包装、保险、赔偿、仲裁等。

外贸函电基本要求:主题明确,内容简洁,语言精炼,表述完整。

外贸函电的格式:有固定的语言、习惯用法和常用句型。

外贸函电的语气:各部分语气。开发信、询盘回复一般要客气,表达感谢;平常业务联系要细心、信任;催促付款要紧急而不失礼貌;客户索赔要理解、给予足够的解释和说明。

书写基本原则

一、Courtesy礼貌

语言要有礼且谦虚,及时地回信也是礼貌的表现。

例如:

We have received with many thanks your letter of 20 May, and we take the pleasure of sending you our latest catalog. We wish to draw your attention to a special offer which we have made in it.

You will be particularly interested in a special offer on page 5 of the latest catalog enclosed, which you requested in your letter of 20 May.

二、Consideration体谅

写信时要处处从对方的角度去考虑有什么需求,而不是从自身出发,语气上更尊重对方。

例如:

“You earn 2 percent discount when you pay cash. We will send you the brochure next month. ”就比 “We allow 2 percent discount for cash payment. We won't be able to send you the brochure this month.”要好。

三、Completeness完整

一封商业信函应概况了各项必需的事项,如邀请信应说明时间、地点等,确忌寄出含糊不清的信件。

四、Clarity清楚

意思表达明确,要注意:

(一)避免用词错误:

例如:As to the steamers sailing from Hong Kong to San Francisco, we have bimonthly direct services.

此处bimonthly有歧义:可以是twice a month 或者once two month.故读信者就迷惑了,可以改写为:

1.We have two direct sailings every month from Hong Kong to San Francisco.

2.We have semimonthly direct sailing from Hong Kong to San Francisco.

3.We have a direct sailing from Hong Kong to San Francisco.

(二)注意词语所放的位置:

例如:

1. We shall be able to supply 10 cases of the item only.

2. We shall be able to supply 10 cases only of the item.

前者则有两种商品以上的含义。

(三)注意句子的结构:

例如:

1.We sent you 5 samples yesterday of the goods which you requested in your letter of May 20 by air.

2.We sent you, by air, 5 samples of the goods which you requested in your letter of May 20.

五、Conciseness 简洁

(一)避免废话连篇:

例如:

1.We wish to acknowledge receipt of your letter...可改为:We appreciate your letter...

2.Enclosed herewith please find two copies of...可改为: We enclose two copies of...

(二)避免不必要的重复:

(三)短句、单词的运用:

Enclosed herewith----->enclosed

at this time----->now

due to the fact that----->because

a draft in the amount of $1000----->a draft for $1000

六、Concreteness具体

七、Correctness正确

常用客套语句?01.Please accept our thanks for the trouble you have taken.

有劳贵方,不胜感激。

02.We are obliged to thank you for your kind attention in this matter.

不胜感激贵方对此事的关照。
