Offer - Offer (English spelling)

Japanese: オファー - おふぁー(英語表記)offer
Offer - Offer (English spelling)

Generally, an offer is made by one of the parties to a sale to the other, with the price being the main condition. There are two types of offer: a selling offer and a buying offer, but in trade terms, it usually refers to a selling offer. The offer conditions of the seller (exporter) include the name, brand, quality, price, quantity, loading time, and payment method of the product. If the seller also specifies a deadline for the buyer's response in addition to the above conditions, it is called a firm offer, and if no deadline for the response is required, it is called a free offer. A firm offer is the norm, and in this case, the seller is not allowed to arbitrarily change the conditions that have already been notified within the deadline. If the buyer accepts the seller's offer (called acceptance), a sales contract is established.

Japanese:

一般に、売買当事者の一方が、他方に対して、価格をおもな条件として申込みをすること。オファーには、売り申込みselling offerと買い申込みbuying offerとがあるが、貿易用語では、売り申込みをさすのが通例である。売り手(輸出業者)の申込み条件には、商品の品名、銘柄、品質、価格、数量、積込み時期、支払い方法などが含まれる。以上の条件に加えて、買い手の回答期限を条件づける場合を確定オファー(ファーム・オファーfirm offer)といい、回答期限を要求しない場合をフリー・オファーfree offerという。ファーム・オファーが普通で、その場合、期限内に売り手が、すでに通知した条件をかってに変更することは許されない。買い手が売り手のオファーを承諾すれば(アクセプタンスという)、売買契約が成立する。
