perittävillä

Perittävillä is a Finnish term used mainly in legal, financial, and administrative contexts. It is the adessive plural form of the participle perittävä, which comes from the verb perittää meaning to demand, levy, or collect money, taxes, or fees. Semantically, perittävillä refers to the charges, debts, or persons from whom something is to be collected, i.e., those who are liable to pay or the items that are due to be billed.

In practice, perittävillä is used to indicate liabilities in formal documents such as contracts, tax notices, or debt-collection communications. It signals that certain costs or obligations are subject to collection according to applicable rules or statutes. The expression is typical in official language and may sound formal or bureaucratic in everyday speech.

Common usages include phrases like perittävillä olevat maksut (charges to be collected) and perittävillä olevat velat (debts to be collected). The term can also appear in statutes, regulations, and administrative guidelines when listing items that are enforceable or chargeable.

Relation to other terms: perittävä is the base form meaning “to be collected” or “chargeable” and is used attributively to identify specific charges or debts. Perintä (debt collection) and verotus (taxation) are related areas where the concept of what is perittävillä often appears.
