With regard to officiousness in a bureaucracy, the term is red-tapism. This word is practically never used. The usual practice is to simple say a delay is caused by "red tape." (from the red tape or fabric strips once used to bind important documents)

With regard to ceremonial formalities, another word is "pomp."
