Dutch term or phrase: ter kwijting overhandigen
In een document ´Richtlijnen voor onderaannemers´ staat de volgende zin onder het kopje ´Levering´:

´De chauffeur moet de documenten aan de ontvanger ter kwijting overhandigen en zich ervan vergewissen dat alle exemplaren van de CMR [..] worden ondertekend [..]´.

Doeltaal: Brits Engels
Doelgroep: onderaannemers
Voor ´ter kwijting´ heb ik als vertaling gevonden: to discharge, maar ik weet niet hoe ik dit moet combineren met overhandigen.

Groet,
Simone
