Phạm vi hoạt động đại lý


Explanation:
I need a specific context other than your defined term for my further help. Under the definition of oxford dictionary, 'jurisdiction' mainly means the official power to make legal decisions and judgements which may be translated in Vietnamese as 'Thẩm quyền xét xử'. However, I'm not sure if you are going through Article 2.5 of the following insurance agency agreement sample at the following link: http://thicong.net/showthread.php?21561-Mẫu-03&s=5b6b3d02c78... 'jurisdiction' term may be translated in Vietnamese as 'Phạm vi hoạt động đại lý'
