bekendtgøres

Bekendtgøres is a Danish verb meaning to publish, proclaim, or announce officially. In Danish administrative and legal language it denotes the act by which a regulation, decree, or other legal norm is made publicly known and legally binding through publication in an official publication, most commonly Lovtidende, the Danish official gazette.

Form and usage: The form bekedtgøres is the passive present tense of the verb bekendtgøre (to publish/announce). It is used in statutory and administrative texts to indicate that a regulation is being issued and made known. The corresponding noun for the published act is bekendtgørelse (the regulation or decree). The definite form is bekendtgørelsen.

Legal significance: Publication in the official gazette is typically a prerequisite for a regulation to have legal effect; many acts specify that they come into force upon publication or on a specified date after such publication. The phrasing bekndtgøres in a document signals that the text will be, or has been, made publicly available through the formal channel.

Context and usage: The term is common in Danish legislative drafts, government circulars, and administrative orders issued by ministries and agencies. It is distinct from lov (law) and forordning (a different form of regulation), though it is related as part of the broader legislative process. The act of bekenttgøre ensures transparency and informs the public and relevant authorities about new rules and obligations. See also: Lovtidende, bekendtgørelse, forordning, lov.
