IATE – The EU's Terminology Management System

IATE (Interactive Terminology for Europe) is the EU's terminology management system. EU institutions and bodies have used it to collect, disseminate and manage terminology since 2004. The project was launched in 1999 with the aim of providing a web-based infrastructure for all EU terminology resources, thus enhancing the availability and standardisation of their contents. The project partners are:

  • European Parliament
  • European Commission
  • Council of the European Union
  • European Court of Justice
  • European Court of Auditors
  • European Economic and Social Committee
  • Committee of the Regions
  • Translation Centre for the Bodies of the European Union
  • European Central Bank
  • European Investment Bank

The IATE website is administered by the Translation Centre of the European Union in Luxembourg on behalf of the project partners.
