noun
Used to indicate that something happens or is done on every occasion. Often used in formal or business settings, but also common in everyday speech.

毎回 is more casual and commonly used in everyday conversation, while 都度 is slightly more formal and often used in business or written contexts.
度に is a grammatical construction meaning 'every time', used after verbs or nouns. 都度 is a standalone noun that can be used similarly but often appears in more formal expressions.
Composed of 都 (all, every) and 度 (time, occasion). The kanji combination directly conveys the meaning of 'each time'.
