der Amtseid, -e

oath of office

The German word "Amtseid" is a noun that means "oath of office". It is composed of the words "Amt" (office or position) and "Eid" (oath). The term refers to the formal pledge taken by an individual, usually an official or public servant, to faithfully perform their duties and adhere to the responsibilities of their position. Similar words in German include "Eid" (oath) and "Amt" (office), but these do not have the combined meaning of the specific commitment required when assuming an official role.
