By law — meaning that a written law, passed by a parliament or congress, is what decides or requires the thing. If a company is statutorily required to give you a receipt, it is not being polite: a law says it must. The word marks the SOURCE of the rule. Something can be required by a contract, by a company's own policy, or by custom; statutorily says none of those — it came from a statute, a law on the books. This is a legal and official word. You meet it in contracts, government notices, and news reports about law, and almost never in conversation; in speech people say "by law" or "the law says". It usually sits right in front of the word it changes: statutorily required, statutorily defined, statutorily protected.
依法規定地、法律明文規定地
組成statute + -ory + -ly. A statute is a written law; -ory makes the adjective statutory, "having to do with a statute"; -ly turns that into an adverb, "in that way". Statute itself comes from Latin statuere, to set up, to lay down — a law is something set down.
