Ratification of the Treaty of Lisbon information


Order in which EU member states ratified the treaty.[1] Dates refer to the deposition of the ratification instruments with the government of Italy.

The ratification of the Treaty of Lisbon was officially completed by all member states of the European Union on 13 November 2009 when the Czech Republic deposited its instrument of ratification with the Italian government.[2] The Lisbon Treaty came into force on the first day of the month following the deposition[3][4] of the last instrument of ratification with the government of Italy, which was 1 December 2009.[5]

Most states ratified the treaty in parliamentary processes. The Republic of Ireland was the only member state to hold a referendum on the subject. In a first vote held on 12 June 2008 (the first Lisbon referendum) the treaty was rejected; however a second vote was held on 2 October 2009 (the second Lisbon referendum) and the treaty was approved.

  4. ^ Article 6, paragraph 1 of the Treaty of Lisbon requires that instruments of ratification issued by all member states be deposited with the Government of Italy in order for the treaty to enter into force. The instrument of ratification is a solemn document of international character, usually signed by the country's head of state, confirming to the other parties of the treaty that the state in question accepts the treaty, as signed by its representatives. Each country issues and deposits the instrument of ratification after its internal ratification process is finalised by all required state bodies, in accordance with each country's internal constitutional requirements.
