The word “traktat” is borrowed from the Dutch “traktaat” which originates from the Latin “tractatus”.

In standard Indonesian usage, this term carries a very formal tone and is rarely used in daily conversation. It is more commonly found in legal literature, diplomatic transcripts, or historical texts.
