French term

bordereau d'effets émis

French to English Bus/Financial Finance (general) Document issued in Côte d'Ivoire, to EN UK
"Toutefois, le Receveur ne peut accepter le chèque spécial comme moyen de paiement que :
• si le chèque spécial date de moins d’un (01) an ;
• s’il est certifié par un bordereau d’effets émis."

The document relates to a rather complicated system for the payment of VAT and customs duties in relation to tenders, notably tenders financed by "partenaires au développement" (possibly international organisations).

Termium has "list of bills" but I don't like that.

My literal translation, from several sources, would be "bills issued summary slip".

The only answer posted... ...was the translation I originally suggested.

Julie, what I meant to say was that the slip basically explains what the cheque is paying for, whether you want to call that a slip or a statement doesn't make much odds at the end of the day. I used "payment statement slip".
Julie Barber Dec 12, 2019:
No it's not simply a payment slip it's a statement of account (of monies due as you say) and Liz's link is also correct but not that particular explanation. These are good links

Thanks Wolf, that's helped me along towards an answer. It's basically a payment slip, so anything with that gist will do I think.

Bureaucratese In my four years in exports (from SA to Central & West Africa incl. Iv. Coast), we had to deal with several bureaucratic terms that left us scratching our heads...from experience I can tell you that bordereau can mean all sorts of things, but essentially it's the piece of paper (or digital file) that confirms this, that or the other; there's no universal or fixed meaning.

If effets can be taken to be "bills of exchange" and émis is redundant officialese, then perhaps the term as a whole means something like "confirmed bills of exchange"?
Conor McAuley (asker) Dec 12, 2019:
Text above the section previously posted: "Au vu des pièces justificatives (la demande et la photocopie du chèque spécial appuyées du chèque original), le Receveur tire une quittance et passe les écritures indiquées conformément à la procédure décrite ci-après."

Note from asker:
I think it's more like some kind of statement of monies due.
