German term
Drittelzahlung
German to English
Law/Patents
Law: Contract(s)
Sofern nichts anderes vereinbart ist, ist der Kaufpreis nach Wahl des Kunden innerhalb von 30 Tagen ab Rechnungsstellung zahlbar und fällig ohne Abzug oder 10 Tage nach Rechnungsdatum mit 2% Skonto vom Rechnungsbetrag einschließlich Mehrwertsteuer
Davon abweichende Bedingungen (Vorauszahlung, Drittelzahlung etc.) werden von uns im Einzelfall vorbehalten.
Is this really just a 33 % payment (in advance?) or something like that?
Thanks

payment in thirds
[..]The usual arrangement is payment in thirds. Always negotiate. There is no reason why you shouldn't insist on payment in quarters and payment by cheque.[..]
[..] The client wrote payment in thirds in the contract, with the first payment at the beginning, the second upon submission of the translation for approval, and the third following approval.[..]

[..]We accept payment in thirds for treatments over $600.[..]

one third advance payment
Yes, I believe you are indeed correct - payment of 1/3 in advance.
