Verwaltungsrechtliche

Verwaltungsrechtliche is the attributive form of the German adjective verwaltungsrechtlich and is used to describe matters related to Verwaltungsrecht, the branch of law governing public administration. In legal language it serves to indicate that a subject, rule, or action falls within the domain of administrative law rather than civil or criminal law.

The term is particularly common in contexts such as verwaltungsrechtliche Verfahren (administrative procedures), verwaltungsrechtliche Entscheidungen (administrative decisions), verwaltungsrechtliche Anforderungen (administrative requirements) or verwaltungsrechtliche Regelungen (administrative regulations). It thus helps distinguish administrative-law matters from other areas of law in scholarly writing, policy documents, or court rulings.

In Germany and other German-speaking jurisdictions, Verwaltungsrecht regulates the actions of public authorities, including how permits are issued, how regulations are enforced, how hearings are conducted, and how decisions can be challenged. The field encompasses general administrative law (Allgemeines Verwaltungsrecht) as well as special administrative law (Spezialverwaltungsrecht) such as Bau-, Verkehrs-, Sozial- oder Finanzverwaltungsrecht. The label verwaltungsrechtlich clarifies that a issue is governed by these rules and procedures, not by private or penal law.

The usage of verwaltungsrechtlich thus supports precise legal referencing, procedural planning, and the determination of rights and remedies before administrative authorities and Verwaltungsgerichte (administrative courts). It is a standard term in legal writing, statutory interpretation, and academic discussion.
