Explanation:
Thursday would not be stated however in your document it may be relevant so I'd leave Thursday in. No comma's in UK English but a comma in American English where the date would be written April 13th, 2006.

13/04/06 is just to let you know how it would be written in figures (again that's UK English).

agree  Caryl Swift: I would write "dated the fifth of December in the year two thousand and five" - also, may I suggest 'Today, Thursday the thirteenth of April in the year two thousand and six, we the undersigned...' If it's American, put the month before the day.

  -> Thank you! :-))
disagree  PRen (X): dated the thirteenth day of April, two thousand and six/the fifth day of December, two thousand and six. Also, it's party of the first part.
1 hr
  -> Appreciated. The ignorance noted.
agree  MikeGarcia

  -> Thank you! :-))
disagree  Richard Benham: The "on" is definitely wrong. "Dated this thirteenth day of April..." is archaic but still common.
