admissibility
The quality of being allowed or permitted, especially in a legal or formal context. It describes whether something complies with rules, laws, or regulations.
Das Gericht prüft zunächst die Zulässigkeit der Klage, bevor es sich mit dem Inhalt befasst.
The court first examines the admissibility of the lawsuit before dealing with its substance.
The word is derived from the adjective 'zulässig' (admissible/permissible), which in turn comes from the verb 'zulassen' (to allow). The ending '-keit' turns the adjective into a noun that describes the quality of being allowed.
Die Zulässigkeit dieses Vorgehens ist fraglich.
The admissibility of this procedure is questionable.
'Zulässigkeit' (admissibility) is often used with the preposition 'von' and with the genitive to describe whose or what permissibility is meant. The structure is: die Zulässigkeit + von + noun (dative) or die Zulässigkeit + genitive.
Der Anwalt prüft die Zulässigkeit der Beweismittel.
The lawyer examines the admissibility of the evidence.
This word belongs to formal language. It is found almost exclusively in legal, official, or academic texts.
Im Gutachten wird die Zulässigkeit des Bauvorhabens bestätigt.
The expert report confirms the admissibility of the construction project.
admission / registration
Zulassung is the official permission itself or the result of granting it. Zulässigkeit, on the other hand, refers to the quality of being permitted under the applicable rules. An authority may therefore first assess whether a project is permissible and then decide whether to grant its Zulassung.
Vor ihrer Entscheidung prüfte die Behörde die Zulässigkeit des Vorhabens.
Before making its decision, the authority assessed whether the project was permissible.
Nach der Prüfung erteilte die Behörde die Zulassung für das Vorhaben.
After the assessment, the authority approved the project.
