A celebret (from the Latin celebret, "may he celebrate", the first word of the document) is a letter which, according to canon 903 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, a Roman Catholic bishop or major religious superior gives to a priest in order that the priest may obtain permission in another diocese to say Mass, and for this purpose bears testimony that he is free from canonical censures.
