THE STATES PARTIES TO THIS CONVENTION, DESIRING to establish common provisions concerning agency in the international sale of goods, BEARING IN MIND the objectives of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, CONSIDERING that the development of international trade on the basis of equality and mutual benefit is an important element in promoting friendly relations among States, bearing in mind the New International Economic Order, BEING OF THE OPINION that the adoption of uniform rules which govern agency in the international sale of goods and take into account the different social, economic and legal systems would contribute to the removal of legal barriers in international trade and promote the development of international trade, HAVE AGREED as follows:
本公約各締約國(guó)愿就國(guó)際貨物銷售中的代理制訂共同條款，銘記聯(lián)合國(guó)關(guān)于國(guó)際貨物銷售合同公約的目標(biāo)，銘記國(guó)際經(jīng)濟(jì)新秩序，考慮到在平等互利基礎(chǔ)上發(fā)展國(guó)際貿(mào)易是促進(jìn)國(guó)家間友好關(guān)系的重要因素，認(rèn)為照顧到不同的社會(huì)、經(jīng)濟(jì)和法律制度，就國(guó)際貨物銷售中的代理采用統(tǒng)一規(guī)則將有助于排除國(guó)際貿(mào)易的障礙，促進(jìn)國(guó)際貿(mào)易的發(fā)展，茲協(xié)議如下：

CHAPTER III - LEGAL EFFECTS OF ACTS CARRIED OUT BY THE AGENT
第三章代理人實(shí)施的行為的法律效力
Article 12 第十二條
Where an agent acts on behalf of a principal within the scope of his authority and the third party knew or ought to have known that the agent was acting as an agent, the acts of the agent shall directly bind the principal and the third party to each other, unless it follows from the circumstances of the case, for example, by a reference to a contract of commission, that the agent undertakes to bind himself only.
代理人于其權(quán)限范圍內(nèi)代理本人實(shí)施行為，而且第三人知道或理應(yīng)知道代理人是以代理身份實(shí)施行為時(shí)，代理人的行為直接約束本人與第三人，但代理人實(shí)施該行為只對(duì)自己發(fā)生拘束力時(shí)(例如所涉及的是行紀(jì)合同)，不在此限。
Article 13第十三條
(1) Where the agent acts on behalf of a principal within the scope of his authority, his acts shall bind only the agent and the third party if:
(a) the third party neither knew nor ought to have known that the agent was acting as an agent, or
(b) it follows from the circumstances of the case, for example by a reference to a contract of commission, that the agent undertakes to bind himself only.
(1)代理人于其權(quán)限范圍內(nèi)代理本人實(shí)施行為，在下列情形，其行為只拘束代理人和第三人，(a)第三人不知道、亦無(wú)從知道代理人是以代理人身份實(shí)施行為;或者(b)代理人實(shí)施該行為只對(duì)自己發(fā)生拘束力(例如所涉及的是行紀(jì)合同)。
(2) Nevertheless:
(a) where the agent, whether by reason of the third party's failure of performance or for any other reason, fails to fulfill or is not in a position to fulfill his obligations to the principal, the principal may exercise against the third party the rights acquired on the principal's behalf by the agent, subject to any defences which the third party may set up against the agent;
(b) where the agent fails to fulfill or is not in a position to fulfill his obligations to the third party, the third party may exercise against the principal the rights which the third party has against the agent, subject to any defences which the agent may set up against the third party and which the principal may set up against the agent.
(2)但是：(a)當(dāng)代理人無(wú)論是因第三人不履行義務(wù)或是因其它理由而未履行或無(wú)法履行其對(duì)本人的義務(wù)時(shí)，本人可以對(duì)第三人行使代理人代理本人所取得的權(quán)利，但應(yīng)受到第三人可能對(duì)代理人提出的任何抗辯的限制。
(b)當(dāng)代理人未履行或無(wú)法履行其對(duì)第三人的義務(wù)時(shí)，第三人可對(duì)本人行使該第三人對(duì)代理人所有的權(quán)利，但應(yīng)受到代理人可能對(duì)第三人提出的任何抗辯以及本人可能對(duì)代理人提出的任何抗辯的限制。
(3) The rights under paragraph 2 may be exercised only if notice of intention to exercise them is given to the agent and the third party or principal, as the case may be. As soon as the third party or principal has received such notice, he may no longer free himself from his obligations by dealing with the agent.
本條第2款所述各項(xiàng)權(quán)利只有在意欲行使這些權(quán)利的通知視情況送達(dá)代理人與第三人或本人時(shí)才可行使。一旦第三人或本人收到是項(xiàng)通知，即不得再與代理人進(jìn)行交涉而解除自己的義務(wù)。
(4) Where the agent fails to fulfill or is not in a position to fulfill his obligations to the third party because of the principal's failure of performance, the agent shall communicate the name of the principal to the third party.
當(dāng)代理人因本人未履行義務(wù)而未履行或無(wú)法履行其對(duì)第三人的義務(wù)時(shí)，代理人應(yīng)將本人的名稱通知第三人。
(5) Where the third party fails to fulfill his obligations under the contract to the agent, the agent shall communicate the name of the third party to the principal.
(6) The principal may not exercise against the third party the rights acquired on his behalf by the agent if it appears from the circumstances of the case that the third party, had he known the principal's identity, would not have entered into the contract.
(7) An agent may, in accordance with the express or implied instructions of the principal, agree with the third party to derogate from or vary the effect of paragraph 2.
(5)當(dāng)?shù)谌宋绰男衅鋵?duì)代理人的合同義務(wù)時(shí)，代理人應(yīng)將第三人的名稱通知本人。
(6)如果按照當(dāng)時(shí)情況，第三人若知道本人的身份就不會(huì)訂立合同時(shí)，本人不得對(duì)第三人行使代理人代理本人所取得的權(quán)利。
(7)代理人可按本人明示或默示的指示與第三人約定，改變本條第二款或改變其效力。
Article 14 第十四條
(1) Where an agent acts without authority or超越授權(quán)范圍 acts outside the scope of his authority, his acts do not bind the principal and the third party to each other.
(2) Nevertheless, where the conduct of the principal causes the third party reasonably and in good faith to believe that the agent has authority to act on behalf of the principal and that the agent is acting within the scope of that authority, the principal may not invoke against the third party the lack of authority of the agent.
(1)當(dāng)代理人未經(jīng)授權(quán)或超越授權(quán)范圍而為某種行為時(shí)，其行為對(duì)本人和第三人無(wú)拘束力。
(2)但是，若本人的行為使第三人合理地并善意地相信代理人有權(quán)代理本人為某種行為并且相信代理人是在該項(xiàng)授權(quán)范圍內(nèi)為某種行為時(shí)，本人不得以代理人無(wú)代理權(quán)而對(duì)抗第三人。
Article 15 第十五條
(1) An act by an agent who acts without authority or who acts outside the scope of his authority may be ratified by the principal. On ratification the act produces the same effects as if it had initially been carried out with authority.
(2) Where, at the time of the agent's act, the third party neither knew nor ought to have known of the lack of authority, he shall not be liable to the principal if, at any time before ratification, he gives notice of his refusal to become bound by a ratification. Where the principal ratifies but does not do so within a reasonable time, the third party may refuse to be bound by the ratification if he promptly notifies the principal.
(3) Where, however, the third party knew or ought to have known of the lack of authority of the agent, the third party may not refuse to become bound by a ratification before the expiration of any time agreed for ratification or, failing agreement, such reasonable time as the third party may specify.
(4) The third party may refuse to accept a partial ratification.
(1)代理人未經(jīng)授權(quán)或超越授權(quán)范圍而為的行為，可由本人追認(rèn)。追認(rèn)后，該行為即發(fā)生如同自始即經(jīng)授權(quán)的同一效力。
(2)第三人若在代理人行為時(shí)，不知道、也不能知道該代理人未經(jīng)授權(quán)，并且在追認(rèn)發(fā)出通知，拒絕受追認(rèn)的拘束時(shí)，即對(duì)本人不負(fù)責(zé)任。本人雖已追認(rèn)，而未在合理期間內(nèi)追認(rèn)時(shí)，第三人如立即通知本人，即可拒絕受追認(rèn)的拘束。
(3)但是，如第三人知道或能知道代理人未經(jīng)授權(quán)，則在約定的追認(rèn)屆滿前，若無(wú)此約定，在第三人確定的合理期間屆滿前，第三人不得拒絕受追認(rèn)的拘束。
(4)第三人可拒絕接受部分追認(rèn)。
(5) Ratification shall take effect when notice of it reaches the third party or the ratification otherwise comes to his attention. Once effective, it may not be revoked.
(6) Ratification is effective notwithstanding that the act itself could not have been effectively carried out at the time of ratification.
(7) Where the act has been carried out on behalf of a corporation or other legal person before its creation, ratification is effective only if allowed by the law of the State governing its creation.
(8) Ratification is subject to no requirements as to form. It may be express or may be inferred from the conduct of the principal.
(5)追認(rèn)于追認(rèn)通知到達(dá)第三人或追認(rèn)經(jīng)其他方法為第三人獲悉時(shí)生效。追認(rèn)發(fā)生效力后不能撤回。
(6)即使追認(rèn)時(shí)行為本身尚未能有效地完成，追認(rèn)仍然有效。
(7)行為是代理一個(gè)尚未成立的公司或其它法人而實(shí)施的，只在準(zhǔn)許公司設(shè)立的國(guó)家的法律允許時(shí)，追認(rèn)才有效。
(8)追認(rèn)的形式不受任何要求的限制。既可明示追認(rèn)也可依本人之行為推斷之。
Article 16 第十六條
(1) An agent who acts without authority or who acts outside the scope of his authority shall, failing ratification, be liable to pay the third party such compensation as will place the third party in the same position as he would have been in if the agent had acted with authority and within the scope of his authority.
(2) The agent shall not be liable, however, if the third party knew or ought to have known that the agent had no authority or was acting outside the scope of his authority.
(1)未經(jīng)授權(quán)或超越授權(quán)范圍而行為的代理人，若其行為未得到追認(rèn)，應(yīng)承擔(dān)對(duì)第三人的賠償責(zé)任，以使第三人處于如同代理人有權(quán)并且在其權(quán)限范圍內(nèi)行為時(shí)的狀況一樣。
(2)但是，若第三人知道或能知道代理人未經(jīng)授權(quán)或超越授權(quán)范圍而行為時(shí)，代理人不承擔(dān)責(zé)任。
CHAPTER IV - TERMINATION OF THE AUTHORITY OF THE AGENT
第四章代理權(quán)的終止
Article 17 第十七條
The authority of the agent is terminated: 代理權(quán)在下列情況下終止：
(a) when this follows from any agreement between the principal and the agent;
(b) on completion of the transaction or transactions for which the authority was created;
(c) on revocation by the principal or renunciation by the agent, whether or not this is consistent with the terms of their agreement.
(1)依本人與代理人間的協(xié)議終止;
(2)為之授權(quán)的一筆或數(shù)筆交易已經(jīng)完成;
(3)無(wú)論是否符合本人與代理人的協(xié)議條款，本人撤回代理權(quán)或代理人辭任。
Article 18第十八條
The authority of the agent is also terminated when the applicable law so provides.
代理權(quán)亦可依其所適用的法律的規(guī)定而終止。
Article 19 第十九條
The termination of the authority shall not affect the third party unless he knew or ought to have known of the termination or the facts which caused it.
代理權(quán)的終止不影響第三人，除非第三人知道或能知道代理權(quán)的終止或造成終止的事實(shí)。
Article 20 第二十條
Notwithstanding the termination of his authority, the agent remains authorised to perform on behalf of the principal or his successors the acts which are necessary to prevent damage to their interests.
代理權(quán)雖已終止，為不使本人或其他繼承人的利益受到損失，代理人仍有權(quán)代理本人或其繼承人實(shí)施必要的行為。
