iratokat

Iratokat is the plural accusative form of the Hungarian noun irat, meaning documents or papers. In Hungarian grammar, irat denotes a written record; iratokat refers to multiple documents as the direct object of a verb, as in "Az iratokat meg kell vizsgálni" (The documents must be examined).

In administrative and legal contexts, iratok are central; offices, courts, and archives regularly handle iratok as they are created, transmitted, stored, or archived. The term appears in procedures, forms, and guidelines describing how documents should be managed.

Types of iratok include contracts, invoices, certificates, reports, correspondence, and archival records. They may exist as physical sheets or as digital files. In many settings, a document's integrity and authenticity are protected by signatures, seals, or digital verification.

Document management encompasses storage, retrieval, indexing, and retention. Physical iratok are typically archived in secure file rooms; digital iratok are stored in electronic repositories with metadata, backups, and access controls. Privacy laws and data-protection rules govern who may access or copy iratok.
