The third normal form (3NF) requires that there are no transitive dependencies in a table. This means that non-primary key attributes cannot be determined by other non-primary key attributes. It helps to eliminate data redundancies and improve the efficiency of the database. First normal form (1NF) deals with atomic values, second normal form (2NF) deals with partial dependencies, and fourth normal form (4NF) deals with multi-valued dependencies.
