第二部分 合同的訂立
PART II-Formation of the Contract
第十四條
(1)向一個或一個以上特定的人提出的訂立合同的建議,如果十分確定并且表明發(fā)價人在得到接受時承受約束的意旨,即構成發(fā)價。一個建議如果寫明貨物并且明示或暗示地規(guī)定數(shù)量和價格或規(guī)定如何確定數(shù)量和價格,即為十分確定。
(2)非向一個或一個以上特定的人提出的建議,僅應視為邀請做出發(fā)價,除非提出建議的人明確地表示相反的意向。
Article 14
(1) A proposal for concluding a contract addressed to one or more specific persons constitutes an offer if it is sufficiently definite and indicates the intention of the offeror to be bound in case of acceptance. A proposal is sufficiently definite if it indicates the goods and expressly or implicitly fixes or makes provision for determining the quantity and the price.
(2) A proposal other than one addressed to one or more specific persons is to be considered merely as an invitation to make offers, unless the contrary is clearly indicated by the person making the proposal.
第十五條
(1)發(fā)價于送達被發(fā)價人時生效。
(2)一項發(fā)價,即使是不可撤銷的,得予撤回,如果撤回通知于發(fā)價送達被發(fā)價人之前或同時,送達被發(fā)價人。
Article 15
(1) An offer becomes effective when it reaches the offeree.
(2) An offer, even if it is irrevocable, may be withdrawn if the withdrawal reaches the offeree before or at the same time as the offer.
第十六條
(1)在未訂立合同之前,發(fā)價得予撤銷,如果撤銷通知于被發(fā)價人發(fā)出接受通知之前送達被發(fā)價人。
(2)但在下列情況下,發(fā)價不得撤銷:
(a)發(fā)價寫明接受發(fā)價的期限或以其它方式表示發(fā)價是不可撤銷的;或
(b)被發(fā)價人有理由信賴該項發(fā)價是不可撤銷的,而且被發(fā)價人已本著對該項發(fā)價的信賴行事。
Article 16
(1) Until a contract is concluded an offer may be revoked if the revocation reaches the offeree before he has dispatched an acceptance.
(2) However, an offer cannot be revoked:
(a) if it indicates, whether by stating a fixed time for acceptance or otherwise, that it is irrevocable; or
(b) if it was reasonable for the offeree to rely on the offer as being irrevocable and the offeree has acted in reliance on the offer.
第十七條
一項發(fā)價,即使是不可撤銷的,于拒絕通知送達發(fā)價人時終止。
Article 17
An offer, even if it is irrevocable, is terminated when a rejection reaches the offeror.
第十八條
(1)被發(fā)價人聲明或做出其它行為表示同意一項發(fā)價,即是接受,緘默或不行動本身不等于接受。
(2)接受發(fā)價于表示同意的通知送達發(fā)價人時生效。如果表示同意的通知在發(fā)價人所規(guī)定的時間內,如未規(guī)定時間,在一段合理的時間內,未曾送達發(fā)價人,接受就成為無效,但須適當?shù)乜紤]到交易的情況,包括發(fā)價人所使用的通訊方法的迅速程序。對口頭發(fā)價必須立即接受,但情況有別者不在此限。
(3)但若根據(jù)該項發(fā)價或依當事人之間確立的習慣作法和慣例,被發(fā)價人可以做出某種行為,例如與發(fā)運貨物或支付價款有關的行為,來表示同意,而無須向發(fā)價人發(fā)出通知,則接受于該項行為做出時生效,但該項行為必須在上一款所規(guī)定的期間內做出。
Article 18
(1) A statement made by or other conduct of the offeree indicating assent to an offer is an acceptance. Silence or inactivity does not in itself amount to acceptance.
(2) An acceptance of an offer becomes effective at the moment the indication of assent reaches the offeror. An acceptance is not effective if the indication of assent does not reach the offeror within the time he has fixed or, if no time is fixed, within a reasonable time, due account being taken of the circumstances of the transaction, including the rapidity of the means of communication employed by the offeror. An oral offer must be accepted immediately unless the circumstances indicate otherwise.
(3) However, if, by virtue of the offer or as a result of practices which the parties have established between themselves or of usage, the offeree may indicate assent by performing an act, such as one relating to the dispatch of the goods or payment of the price, without notice to the offeror, the acceptance is effective at the moment the act is performed, provided that the act is performed within the period of time laid down in the preceding paragraph.
第十九條
(1)對發(fā)價表示接受但載有添加、限制或其它更改的答復,即為拒絕該項發(fā)價,并構成還價。
(2)但是,對發(fā)價表示接受但載有添加或不同條件的答復,如所載的添加或不同條件在實質上并不變更該項發(fā)價的條件,除發(fā)價人在不過分遲延的期間內以口頭或書面通知反對其間的差異外,仍構成接受。如果發(fā)價人不做出這種反對,合同的條件就以該項發(fā)價的條件以及接受通知內所載的更改為準。
(3)有關貨物價格、付款、貨物質量和數(shù)量、交貨地點和時間、一方當事人對另一方當事人的賠償責任范圍或解決爭端等等的添加或不同條件,均視為在實質上變更發(fā)價的條件。
Article 19
(1) A reply to an offer which purports to be an acceptance but contains additions, limitations or other modifications is a rejection of the offer and constitutes a counter-offer.
(2) However, a reply to an offer which purports to be an acceptance but contains additional or different terms which do not materially alter the terms of the offer constitutes an acceptance, unless the offeror, without undue delay, objects orally to the discrepancy or dispatches a notice to that effect. If he does not so object, the terms of the contract are the terms of the offer with the modifications contained in the acceptance.
(3) Additional or different terms relating, among other things, to the price, payment, quality and quantity of the goods, place and time of delivery, extent of one party's liability to the other or the settlement of disputes are considered to alter the terms of the offer materially.
第二十條
(1)發(fā)價人在電報或信件內規(guī)定的接受期間,從電報交發(fā)時刻或信上載明的發(fā)信日期起算,如信上未載明發(fā)信日期,則從信封上所載日期起算。發(fā)價人以電話、電傳或其它快速通訊方法規(guī)定的接受期間,從發(fā)價送達被發(fā)價人時起算。
(2)在計算接受期間時,接受期間內的正式假日或非營業(yè)日應計算在內。但是,如果接受通知在接受期間的最后1天未能送到發(fā)價人地址,因為那天在發(fā)價人營業(yè)地是正式假日或非營業(yè)日,則接受期間應順延至下一個營業(yè)日。
Article 20
(1) A period of time for acceptance fixed by the offeror in a telegram or a letter begins to run from the moment the telegram is handed in for dispatch or from the date shown on the letter or, if no such date is shown, from the date shown on the envelope. A period of time for acceptance fixed by the offeror by telephone, telex or other means of instantaneous communication, begins to run from the moment that the offer reaches the offeree.
(2) Official holidays or non-business days occurring during the period for acceptance are included in calculating the period. However, if a notice of acceptance cannot be delivered at the address of the offeror on the last day of the period because that day falls on an official holiday or a non-business day at the place of business of the offeror, the period is extended until the first business day which follows.
第二十一條
(1)逾期接受仍有接受的效力,如果發(fā)價人毫不遲延地用口頭或書面將此種意見通知被發(fā)價人。
(2)如果載有逾期接受的信件或其它書面文件表明,它是在傳遞正常、能及時送達發(fā)價人的情況下寄發(fā)的,則該項逾期接受具有接受的效力,除非發(fā)價人毫不遲延地用口頭或書面通知被發(fā)價人:他認為他的發(fā)價已經(jīng)失效。
Article 21
(1) A late acceptance is nevertheless effective as an acceptance if without delay the offeror orally so informs the offeree or dispatches a notice to that effect.
(2) If a letter or other writing containing a late acceptance shows that it has been sent in such circumstances that if its transmission had been normal it would have reached the offeror in due time, the late acceptance is effective as an acceptance unless, without delay, the offeror orally informs the offeree that he considers his offer as having lapsed or dispatches a notice to that effect.
第二十二條
接受得予撤回,如果撤回通知于接受原應生效之前或同時,送達發(fā)價人。
Article 22
An acceptance may be withdrawn if the withdrawal reaches the offeror before or at the same time as the acceptance would have become effective.
第二十三條
合同于按照本公約規(guī)定對發(fā)價的接受生效時訂立。
Article 23
A contract is concluded at the moment when an acceptance of an offer becomes effective in accordance with the provisions of this Convention.
第二十四條
為公約本部分的目的,發(fā)價、接受聲明或任何其它意旨表示“送達”對方,系指用口頭通知對方或通過任何其它方法送交對方本人,或其營業(yè)地或通訊地址,如無營業(yè)地或通訊地址,則送交對方慣常居住地。
Article 24
For the purposes of this Part of the Convention, an offer, declaration of acceptance or any other indication of intention "reaches" the addressee when it is made orally to him or delivered by any other means to him personally, to his place of business or mailing address or, if he does not have a place of business or mailing address, to his habitual residence.

第一章 總則
Chapter I-General Provisions
第二十五條
一方當事人違反合同的結果,如使另一方當事人蒙受損害,以致于實際上剝奪了他根據(jù)合同規(guī)定有權期待得到的東西,即為根本違反合同,除非違反合同一方并不預知而且一個同等資格、通情達理的人處于相同情況中也沒有理由預知會發(fā)生這種結果。
Article 25
A breach of contract committed by one of the parties is fundamental if it results in such detriment to the other party as substantially to deprive him of what he is entitled to expect under the contract, unless the party in breach did not foresee and a reasonable person of the same kind in the same circumstances would not have foreseen such a result.

Article 27
Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Part of the Convention, if any notice, request or other communication is given or made by a party in accordance with this Part and by means appropriate in the circumstances, a delay or error in the transmission of the communication or its failure to arrive does not deprive that party of the right to rely on the communication.
第二十八條
若按照本公約的規(guī)定,一方當事人有權要求另一方當事人履行某一義務,法院沒有義務做出判決,要求具體履行此一義務,除非法院依照其本身的法律對不屬本公約范圍的類似銷售合同愿意這樣做。
Article 28
If, in accordance with the provisions of this Convention, one party is entitled to require performance of any obligation by the other party, a court is not bound to enter a judgement for specific performance unless the court would do so under its own law in respect of similar contracts of sale not governed by this Convention.
