外贸英语信函双语版

外贸英语信函(双语版) 外贸英语信函是外贸过程中必不可少的环节，也是决定外贸成败的重要环节，那么，外贸英语信函该如何写?下文就对外贸英语信函进行了介绍，可供参考! 外贸英语往来信件包括传真，电邮，信函等，是当今国际贸易交流中的主要载体，其主要目的就是为了传递商务信息。因此合格的英语往来信件必须是以简洁的语言、明晰的结构来表述完整的内容，同时，最好还要可以体现出成熟的业务思维。 一笔定单的开始往往始于出口商主动向潜在客户发信建立业务关系，而这个建立关系的开发函的内容，个人认为可以包括如下内容： 第一：说明客户信息来源，即如何取得对方的资料。 作为贸易商，个人 SOHO 者，可以通过驻外使馆商务参赞处、商会、商务办事处、银行、第三家公司的介绍，或者在企业名录、各种传媒广告、网络上寻得客户资料;也可以在交易会、展览会上结识;甚至是在进行市场调查时获悉。 因此我们可以如下方式来表明客户信息的来源： 1)We learned from the Commercial Counselor's Office of our Embassy in your country that you are interested in Chinese handicraft. 2)Mr.Bowins, Head of Arcolite Electric AG has recommended you to us as a leading importer in Korea of lightweight batteries for vehicles. 3)We have obtained your name and address from the Internet. 4)Our market survey showed that you are the largest importer of cases and bags in Egypt. 当然还有很多的英文表达方式，我就不一一列出来了，反正大家只要知道就行。 第二：言明去函目的。 一般来说，我们给客户写信，总是以开发业务，建立市场，拓宽产品销路为目的。所以我们可以有如下的表达方式： 1)In order to expand our products into South America, we are writing to you to seek cooperate possibilities.
