The paper begins with the introduction of Nida’s functional equivalence theory, which is introduced to be reasonable guidance for business translation. Under the theory, plenty of examples and cases are quoted and analyzed, achieving functional equivalence in meaning, style and culture at the word level, the sentence level and the discourse level. This result indicates that Nida’s theory of functional equivalence can be best applied in business English translation and functional equivalence can be achieved.
