Arrêtés are not usually numbered as other statutes. When accessed through legifrance they have a unique JORF location such as "n°0165 du 18 juillet 2019, Texte n° 11", but this is not the same as the numbering of e.g. décrets. Arrêtés republished elsewhere may not even include JORF or NOR identification, such as via UNHCR's refworld, for example.

Terminology edit

Arrêté has no direct translation into English law. An English overview of arrêtés, décrets, and ordonnances is from Mazet, Lorène. "Translator's corner: arrêté, décret, ordonnance" (PDF). Paris International Litigation Bulletin (5): 24. Retrieved 2022-07-08.

The arrêtés are generally enacted by administrative authorities such as town halls, prefectures and county or regional councils. In some cases, they can also be enacted by Ministries or within Ministries but only when their purpose is to organise their services. In concrete terms, an arrêté is a written enforceable decision enacted pursuant to a décret, a law or an ordonnance. It can have a regulatory scope when it establishes general rules to be applied by an undetermined number of people, or it can concern specific individuals, for instance when it appoints someone to a specific position.

The official French legalese definition of arrêté is in section 1.3.6 of Guide de légistique (3 ed.), La documentation Française, 2017, ISBN 978-2-11-145578-8, retrieved 2022-07-08 See also section 6 (Principales règles typographiques...) for everything you wanted to know about French legal citation formatting.

The basic layout of most French statutes is described in English at "Codes & Legislation". France: legal resources. Bodleian Libraries – University of Oxford. 2022-07-05. Retrieved 2022-07-08.
