urgent request
Time-sensitive ask
An urgent request is a plea or demand requiring immediate attention or action.
The phrase emphasizes time pressure—something needs to happen soon: She made an urgent request for medical supplies.
In formal contexts, particularly bureaucratic or diplomatic settings, urgent request signals priority without demanding: The committee received an urgent request to reconsider the deadline.
