Also means
to execute, to make
Usage Note
Effettuare is a formal, bureaucratic synonym of fare ('to do/make') or eseguire ('to execute'). It is common in official documents, travel announcements (il treno effettuerà una sosta), and technical contexts. In everyday speech, fare is almost always preferred: say fare una telefonata rather than effettuare una telefonata, though both are understood.
Examples
"Il treno effettua una sosta a Firenze."
Natural Translation
The train makes a stop in Florence.
