Portuguese term or phrase: ...........em três vias de igual teor e forma...

The whole sentence reads: "Por estarem justas e contratadas, as partes assinam este instrumento xxxxxxxxxxx para um mesmo fim de direito e efeito."
It appears at the end of the document to be signed by the parties. I know what is meant but haven't the foggiest how you put it in legal English. Most grateful for suggestions.
