GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase:de manera retroactiva
English translation:with retroactive effect
Entered by: Lydianette Soza

Spanish to English translations [Non-PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / Contract - Final clause
Spanish term or phrase: de manera retroactiva
Clausula Final del Acuerdo

El presente Acuerdo entrará en vigor de manera retroactiva desde el 1 de enero de 2017 tras la firma por ambas Partes y permanecerá en vigor hasta que éstas hayan cumplido con todas las obligaciones contraídas en virtud del mismo.

Estoy más que consciente como se traduce "de manera retroactiva" al inglés, sin embargo, me gustaría saber si ya existe una "frase de cajón" en el campo legal para dicho término.

De antemano, gracias.

with retroactive effect
Explanation:
Retroactively would be OK, I think, but I prefer this.

"Agreements Between the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and AUSTRALIA
[...]
The Agreement shall enter into force with retroactive effect from February 26, 2000" (p. 7)

"6. No Further Amendments, Entry Into Force of This AgreementThe remaining provisions of the agreement shall remain unchanged. This amendment agreement shall enter into force with retroactive effect as of January 1, 2014."

  -> Thanks. Charles' proposal too "with retroactive effect" is what I have seen more often than not.

  -> It is differently phrased, and in my opinion clearer and better. And in relation to the asker's question about whether there's a "frase de cajón", it is certainly more usual in non-translated contracts.
