Teavitamise is the act or process of informing or notifying a target audience about information that may affect their rights, obligations, safety, or access to services. In Estonian usage, teavitamine refers to the practice of conveying official or organizational information to the public or to specific groups, and teavitamise is the form used in phrases describing the act or system of informing.

The scope of teavitamise covers public administration, regulatory updates, safety warnings, consumer notices, and communications in civil procedures. Authorities, organizations, and individuals may engage in teavitamine to ensure that people are aware of changes in laws, deadlines, public health advisories, or events that require action. It is commonly used for routine updates as well as urgent alerts.

Common methods include official notices on websites, email or SMS alerts, press releases, social media posts, newsletters, and public meetings. Effective teavitamine aims to be timely, accurate, clear, and accessible.

A key element is accountability and compliance with applicable legal or regulatory requirements. Provisions related to teavitamine may mandate certain audiences to be reached, specify notification timelines, and stipulate standards for accuracy and privacy.
