French term

valable et définitive quittance

French to English Bus/Financial Law: Contract(s)
The words in bold are clearly boilerplate and I I'm looking for the equivalent English boilerplate:

"... prix total et définitif, tous frais compris, que le Cessionnaire a payé à l'instant même au Cédant, qui le reconnaît et lui en donne valable et définitive quittance."

Proposed translations

Selected

'a valid receipt therefor'; effectual receipt and final discharge

The first alternative is a UK boilerplate. Final or definitive is otiose. Therefor = for such and not therefore.

The second alt. is a combination of 2 sep. ideas. Note the legalistic turn of phrase of effectual and not effective receipt.







Example sentence:

to give a valid receipt therefor, and the amount so received shall be adjusted towards repayment / payment of amounts in respect of the Facility provided ...

to the cardholder, if living, otherwise to his legal personal representative, whose receipt shall be an effectual and final discharge to the Insurer.

In response to your comment below, you asked for the boilerplate, which is "full and final". The literal translation is "valid and final receipt", but we don't say that in English - try googling it.
Note from asker:
I nearly did use that form of words, but "valable" is really valid rather than full. I realise that may seem over-literal, but this is a legal document.
