bank domiciliation for the purposes of this contract:
Explanation:
I think you need to treat the expression as a whole, in order to be able to render it smoothly in EN.

I don't think the version your are proofing is actually wrong, though it does depart even further from à literal translation than my own suggestion; my only qualms would be that it introduces the notion of 'payments', which is slightyl restrictive compared to the basic concept in the s/t.

disagree  Daryo: [1] this term applies to natural persons NOT to contracts nor payments related to contracts - (5 sec googling to check!) + [2] it would imply "domiciliation" is decided/imposed by law, not decided by agreement between parties to the contract.

neutral  Tony M: The trouble here is the wording of the source text: while all sorts of things can indeed be 'domiciled', I really don't believe a 'contract' can be — especially when all that is actually involved is BANK domiciliation.

agree  writeaway: Domiciled for the purposes of the contract. domiciled is the translation of domicilié after all

disagree  Tony M: It's hard to see how it is possible to get from 'domiciliation bancaire' to this... but in any case, that's really not at all what it means.

agree  philgoddard: Or you can just say "bank details", which I think is more instantly understandable.
33 mins
  -> Thanks, Phil! Yes, from the first one, I didn't think it gave the FULL bank details, but the second one seems to suggest it does indeed.
agree  Daryo: you need to make clear that this "domiciliation" is only for the purpose of banking, not in regard of any other aspect of this contract.
