agree  Ward Whittaker: Both these answers are correct. It just comes down to style and nothing more, although I use contractor and contractee more. Contractee gives 991,000 hits in google and contracted party only 27,000.

disagree  Fabian Deckwirth: Contractor is actually contratada, and contractee is contratante.

disagree  Fabian Deckwirth: Plain wrong. A muscle is contracted, not a party. Principal and Service Provider are an example for a correct translation.

Explanation:
