gällandes

Gällandes is a Swedish word that translates to "in force," "applicable," or "current" in English. It is commonly used in legal and administrative contexts to indicate that a particular regulation, law, decision, or document is currently valid and in effect. For instance, one might refer to "gällande lagar" (laws in force) or "gällande regler" (applicable rules). The term signifies that the subject matter is the operative one at the present time, superseding any previous or outdated versions. When something is described as gällandes, it means it is the official and binding version that must be followed. The opposite of gällandes would be something that is expired, repealed, or no longer in use. It plays a crucial role in ensuring clarity and adherence to the correct legal and administrative framework.
