A law comes into force on the date it goes into effect. This is all after the drafting, voting and enacting.

A law comes into force (becomes effective) (can be enforced) on the specific date determined by the legislators who made the law.

Law: Fishing in Grommet Lake is forbidden, effective March 15, 2015.

This law comes into force on March 15, 2015.
