kuludeta

Kuludeta is an Estonian adjective meaning “free of charge” or “without expenses.” In official and commercial language, it indicates that a service, product, or action is provided at no cost to the recipient, or that certain expenses are waived or borne by another party.

Etymology and form: The word derives from kulud, meaning expenses, combined with a suffix that conveys negation or absence. As a result, kuludeta functions as a standard descriptor in legal, contract, and policy language to express fee status.

Usage and context: Kuludeta commonly appears in consumer contracts, insurance policies, government notices, and grant or sponsorship terms to clarify whether fees are payable by the user or waived. In English translations, it is often rendered as “no-cost,” “free of charge,” or “costs covered,” depending on the context. The term typically applies to specific charges and does not automatically imply the absence of all possible costs; other terms and conditions may specify additional obligations.

Notes: As with any legal or contractual term, the exact meaning of kuludeta can depend on the surrounding text and jurisdictional usage. When translating or interpreting documents that use kuludeta, it is important to consider the scope of what is described as free of charge and any related conditions.
