mittenõuetekohane

Mittenõuetekohane is an Estonian term that translates to "not in accordance with requirements" or "non-compliant." It is used in various contexts to describe something that fails to meet established standards, regulations, or expectations. This can apply to a wide range of situations, from technical specifications to legal obligations or even social norms.

In a legal or regulatory context, mittenõuetekohane signifies a breach of law or a violation of prescribed rules. For example, a product that does not meet safety standards might be deemed mittenõuetekohane. Similarly, a building that fails to adhere to construction codes would fall into this category. Such non-compliance can lead to penalties, fines, or other corrective actions.

The term can also be used more broadly to indicate a lack of quality or suitability. A service that is poorly delivered or a product that is defective might be described as mittenõuetekohane, even if no specific law has been broken. It implies that the item or action in question does not fulfill its intended purpose or does not meet a reasonable level of performance. Essentially, mittenõuetekohane highlights a discrepancy between what is expected or required and what is actually delivered or presented.
