2023年版Notwithstanding 在合同条款中的用法 在合同翻译，尤其是英译中时，经常可以见到”notwithstanding the foregoing“之类的句子，通常这类句子可以直接译为“尽管有上述规定”，翻译与although， though， even if使用并没有太大区别，基本上都可以翻译成“尽管…”， “即使…”，表示一种让步，但是它引导的并不是让步状语从句，后面接的内容应放在次要位置考虑。 例?Notwithstanding the foregoing, the buyer’s obligation to pay the purchase agreement price, or any other sums due under the purchase agreement, is ont so suspended. 尽管有前述规定，但买方支付采购订单价格的义务或其他到期款项并不因此推迟。也就是说，即使发生了不可抗力，买方照常付款，不得延迟。 例?Notwithstanding any other provision of the contract, if the contractor intends to claim any additional payment pursuant to any clause of these conditions or otherwise, he shall give notice to his intention to the engineer, with a copy to the employer, within 28days after the event giving rise to the claim has first arisen. 尽管本合同有其他任何规定，如果承包商根据本合同的任何条款或其他有关规定打算索取任何追加付款，他都应在引起索赔的事件第一次发生后28天内，将其索赔意向通知工程师，并将一份副本呈交业主。 在上面这句话，notwithstanding 后面紧跟any other provision of the contract，表明后面的内容应优先考虑。其他条款不得与其抵触。 例?Notwithstanding any other provisions of applicable laws, the parties agree that all taxes and duties payable arising from the transfer shall be borne by both the transferor and transferee in equal shares. 除相关法律其他规定外，协议双方同意，因转让发生的所有应纳税款应由双方均摊。 例Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 91 of these Regulations, when a business establishment in charge of consolidated tax filing fails to compute the taxable income of different business establishments appropriately on a separate basis, the local tax authorities may make reasonable apportionment of the taxable income among these business establishments, under their respective proportion of business income, costs and expenses, assets, the number of staff and workers, or the amount of wages. 虽有本细则第九十一条的规定，负责合并申报缴纳所得税的营业机构不能合理地分别计算各营业机构的应纳税所得额时，当地税务机关可以对应税所得总额，按照营业收入比例、成本和费用比例、资产比例、职工人数或者工资数额的比例，在各营业机构之间合理分配。 例If, notwithstanding Sub-Clause 65.1, any damage occurs to any bridge or road communicating with or on the routes to the site due to the transport of materials or plant, the Contractor sh
