Danish term

Indb. komm. best.

Danish to English Other Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs Union or Organization Membership Record
These abbreviations are again from a table that belongs to a larger form recording dues paid, health insurance and moves of address for one member. I'm uncertain of the organization as there is no title to the form and no organization name. The abbreviation in question is in a health insurance column. In a corresponding cell, there is a long list of years. There is no title for the column in which the abbreviation in question appears, but the cells which precede it read "§ 11 bevis" (§ 11 certificate), "Helbredsundersøg. udsat til" (Health examination deferred to), "Tilskr. vedr. optagelse" (Additions regarding admission), and then "Indb. komm. best."

I'm stumped! Any ideas would be much appreciated.

I agree with "notification" As Gitte says, noone pays to the municipal council.

Well, logic would have it... ... that nobody pays anything to the municipal council, but information might be forwarded to the council...
Tania Therien (asker) Aug 18, 2012:
Payment to municipal council or notification to municipal council. (Tak Gitte og Annelise!) In the context of health insurance it seems that payment might be best. But there are other references to the stiftamt and there's also a column regarding voting rights.

What do you do when either would fit? In both cases there would have been communication between whatever organization this is and the municipal council.

Try Retskrivningsordbogen This and the other questions you have asked are difficult to give definite answers to, as I said in my suggetion to your first question, it will be somebody's private abbreviations.

May I suggest that you try looking at Retskrivningsordbogen at http://retskrivningsordbogen.dk/ro/ro.htm?q= entering the abbreviation without the full stop. In that way you will get the list of words that start with your abbreviation (you can go to the next page in the list by clicking the forward arrow at the top). At least you will then get an idea of which words could have been abbreviated.

In this particular example, Indb. might as well be 'indberettet'.

Good luck with your search!

Inbetaling works nicely. I've never seen a document with so many abbreviations before--even for Danish.
Erik Brinkhof Aug 18, 2012:
No you are not stupid, the use of such abbrev. may be stupid :-)

Indb. is likely Indbetaling > Payment

The rest..... No idea!

Det er den almindeligste betydning for komm.best.
