很好，这个会议很重要。

A：Let's start out to discuss the question of payment terms.

A:我们开始谈付款条件的问题吧。

B：l suppose you know very well that we require irrevocable letters of credit payable against presentation of shipping documents.

B:我想您很清楚，我们要求不可撤销信用证，凭提交货运 单据付款。

A:I fully understand your position. An irrevocable letter of credit ensures that the seller gets paid in time. But, on the other hand it would add to the buying costs. We’ve been, after all， trading partners for 3 years and you know us well. Can't you give us D/A or D/P?

A:我十分了解你们的想法。不可撤销信用证可保证卖主 及时收到货款。但是另一方面，这会影响买方的成本。 不管怎么说，我们作为贸易伙伴已经3年了，你们很了 解我们的情况，你们能考虑给我们承兑交单或付款交 单条件吗?

B：I'm afraid it has been our practice so far to insist on payment by L/C.

B:恐怕不行，到目前为止我们一直坚持信用证付款。

A:但是，对于我们来说，我们的政府很不愿意批准用信用 证付款来进口，而且还有许可证的问题。

B：l understand that. Still, I’m not in a position to help you. Maybe we could do something later when we have had more and larger deals together.

B:这点我理解，但我帮不了你们。也许等将来我们做了 更多更大的生意以后，我们可以想点办法。
