Kézbesítési

Kézbesítési is a Hungarian term that denotes the act of delivering something to an intended recipient. It is used in both everyday and formal contexts to describe the transfer of goods, letters, or documents from sender to receiver, and it often appears as an attribute in phrases such as kézbesítési cím (delivery address) or kézbesítési határidő (delivery deadline). The concept encompasses not only the physical handover but also the verification that the recipient has received the item.

In legal contexts, kézbesítés refers to the service of documents by authorities or courts. It ensures that a party is informed of proceedings, notices, or required actions, and it can determine the start of procedural deadlines. Depending on the jurisdiction and the type of document, methods may include personal handover by an authorized person, delivery to a designated address with acknowledgment, or electronic transmission with a verified receipt. Proof of kézbesítés—such as a signed receipt or an electronic log—is commonly required to establish that notice has occurred. In Hungary, rules governing kézbesítés appear in civil procedure and administrative law and specify acceptable methods for different bodies and document types.

In commerce and logistics, kézbesítés refers to the actual delivery of goods or mail to the recipient or an authorized agent, often accompanied by confirmation of receipt and documentation for tracking. The term thus covers routine parcel deliveries as well as formal process-serving activities, highlighting the practical and legal importance of timely and verifiable handover.
