The Constitution of Saint Kitts and Nevis was adopted on 23 June 1983 and took effect when the country became independent on 19 September 1983. It consists of 11 chapters and various schedules, which establish the rights, responsibilities and definition of the citizens of the federation. It also provides the form and structure of government, and enumerates the powers of the different branches of government. Its treatment of the island of Nevis is rather unusual among federated nations.

  • The Constitution of Saint Kitts and Nevis was adopted on 23 June 1983 and took effect when the country became independent on 19 September 1983. It consists of 11 chapters and various schedules, which establish the rights, responsibilities and definition of the citizens of the federation. It also provides the form and structure of government, and enumerates the powers of the different branches of government. Its treatment of the island of Nevis is rather unusual among federated nations. The current constitution of Saint Kitts and Nevis was prepared in anticipation of the country achieving independence from Britain. It is the only constitution the country has had as an independent nation, however there were several colonial constitutions before it. The union of the islands of Saint Kitts and Nevis has been controversial at least since 1882, leading the constitution to specifically provide for a path to independence for Nevis. This makes Saint Kitts and Nevis unusual among Federations. The government created by the constitution is a constitutional monarchy headed by Elizabeth II, with a unicameral legislature. Nevis is provided with a separate island administration, but Saint Kitts is not. (en)

A atual constituição de São Cristóvão e Neves foi preparada em antecipação à conquista da independência do Reino Unido. É a única constituição que o país teve como nação independente, no entanto, havia várias constituições coloniais antes dele. A união das ilhas de São Cristóvão e Neves é controversa desde 1882, levando a constituição a prever especificamente um caminho de independência para Neves. Isso torna São Cristóvão e Neves incomum entre as federações. O governo criado pela constituição é uma monarquia constitucional liderada por Elizabeth II, com uma legislatura unicameral. Neves recebe uma administração da ilha separada, mas São Cristóvão não. (pt)
