Etymology traces komplettera to the Latin root completus, via the etymological line through French eller English forms such as compléter/complete. In Swedish, the word is closely related to the adjective komplett, meaning complete, and shares the same semantic field of adding what is necessary to reach fullness.

Common uses and contexts include administrative and educational settings, where information, forms, or materials are described as complete after additions. In legal or formal documents, mentions of “kompletterad” material indicate that required amendments or supplementary data have been provided.
