A requirement is something that’s mandatory or necessary—it’s something you need to have or need to do.

Requirement is most often used in official contexts in which achieving a certain status requires you to perform certain actions or have certain things, such as documents.

Example: By passing this class you have now met all of the basic requirements for your major and will be able to walk at graduation in May.

The first records of requirement come from the 1500s. It is the noun form of the verb require, which is first recorded in the 1300s and comes from the Latin ������ī�������, meaning “to seek to know.” The suffix -ment is used to turn it into a noun.

If something is a requirement, it is not optional. Requirements typically must be fulfilled before you can complete something, reach a certain status, or move on to a next step. Many high schools and universities have official graduation requirements, which are usually particular classes that students need to take and projects they need to complete in order to be eligible to graduate. Job requirements are the qualifications that employers require you to have to be hired for a certain position. Each nation has its own citizenship requirements, which can include a variety of things, but often include official documents as well as specific knowledge about the country.
