| | It depneds on how you translate the two words | Explanation:
In some contexts they are translated as "principal" and "agent," n others as "contracting authority" and "contractor."
You might just use the pfirst letter in each case, because there may be no set abbreviation.
Also use the following (hereinafter . . .) for "im Folgenden." |

| Note from asker to answererThank you very much for your appreciated help! I've decided not to use any abbreviations as that is not really common in English and that would perhaps confuse the reader of the contract. I translated Auftraggeber as PRINICPAL and Auftragnehmer as CONTRACTOR. Those two terms fit best. Anyway, the client is very happy with my translation. Thanks once again and have a nice weekend.
