The Constitution of the Maldives (Dhivehi: ދިވެހިރާއްޖޭގެ ޤާނޫނު އަސާސީ, romanized: Dhivehiraajjeyge Qaanoonu Asaasee) is the supreme law of the country of Maldives. It provides the legal foundation for the existence of the Republic of Maldives, sets out the rights and duties of the citizens of the Maldives, and defines the structure of the Government of the Maldives. The current Constitution of the Maldives was ratified by the then president, Maumoon Abdul Gayyoom, on 7 August 2008, and came into effect immediately, replacing and repealing the Constitution of 1998.
The current constitution is known by its short title, Constitution of the Republic of Maldives, 2008.[1]
