Avaldamisel

Avaldamisel is an Estonian term used to indicate the moment of release of information to the public. In English it is commonly translated as “upon publication” or “at publication.” The term is used across legal, administrative, and publishing contexts to describe when obligations, rights, or processes become active.

Etymology and form: The word derives from avaldamine (publication) with the suffix -misel, which forms an adverbial or temporal sense meaning roughly “at the time of” or “upon.” In sentences, avaldamisel typically introduces a reference to the moment of release. It is frequent in official documents, press releases, contracts, and academic notes.

Usage: In contracts, a clause may specify that rights transfer upon avaldamisel of the work. In journalism and media, editorial policies may apply or restrictions may take effect upon avaldamisel. In scholarly contexts, data-sharing or embargo policies use the term to mark the moment of public release. It often aligns with the publication date or the moment a document is officially published by a publisher or institution.
