Guadeloupe legal data from official sources, structured for AI and legaltech.
Guadeloupean laws, regulations, and court decisions live across the Journal Officiel de la République française (via Légifrance), the Préfecture de la Guadeloupe, the territorial collectivities, national regulators, and the courts. Lawstronaut structures legal data from official sources into one format used across more than 150 jurisdictions — with every record linked to its official source. Structured Guadeloupe coverage is not yet live; Team and Enterprise customers can request priority onboarding of the sources below.

Which law made Guadeloupe a French overseas department?
Law No. 46-451 of 19 March 1946 (the loi de départementalisation) reclassified Guadeloupe — along with Martinique, Réunion, and French Guiana — as a French department. Published in the Journal Officiel de la République française, it remains the foundation of Guadeloupe's status as a département et région d'outre-mer (DROM), in which French national law applies under the principle of legislative identity in Article 73 of the Constitution.

Guadeloupean legal coverage will include primary legislation, secondary legislation, regulatory materials, court decisions, guidance, enforcement documents, and legislative history where available.
Legislation & Regulations
French national laws (lois), ordinances (ordonnances), decrees (décrets), and ministerial orders (arrêtés) applicable in Guadeloupe under the principle of legislative identity, together with local préfectoral arrêtés and deliberations of the Région and Département — taken from Légifrance, the Journal Officiel, and the Préfecture's Recueil des actes administratifs.
Legislative History
Bills (projets and propositions de loi) and parliamentary materials from the Assemblée nationale and the Sénat where available, version by version, each tied to its source.
Regulatory Guidance & Enforcement
Guidance, decisions, and enforcement materials from national regulators applicable in Guadeloupe, such as the CNIL, the Autorité de la concurrence, the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF), and the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution (ACPR).
Case Law
Court and tribunal decisions from official and authoritative sources, including the Cour d'appel de Basse-Terre, the Tribunal administratif de la Guadeloupe, and the Cour de cassation and Conseil d'État, where available.
One Guadeloupean legal data layer. Four ways to use it.
Lawstronaut API
Query Guadeloupean laws, regulations, court decisions, regulatory guidance, and enforcement materials through a REST API. Use structured metadata, full text, Markdown, source links, and version history to power legaltech products, compliance workflows, and internal research tools. Guadeloupe coverage is being onboarded — the endpoint below is live and will return records as coverage lands.

Why Lawstronaut for Guadeloupean legal research
Guadeloupean legal information is spread across national legislation portals, the Journal Officiel, ministries, statutory regulators, territorial collectivities, courts, and préfectoral publication sources. For humans, that means slow research. For AI systems, it's a bigger problem: fragmented source access, inconsistent formats, missing provenance, and weak citation trails.
Lawstronaut turns those sources into one structured legal data layer — source links, metadata, full text, versioning, and API/MCP access. Your product or agent retrieves the legal source directly instead of relying on generic web search or unverified model memory. Every answer carries a citation, a timestamp, and a link to the official document — the provenance that makes a legal research platform defensible to auditors and regulators.
About Guadeloupe legal coverage
Guadeloupe is a French overseas department and region (département et région d'outre-mer, DROM) and an outermost region of the European Union. Under the principle of legislative identity in Article 73 of the French Constitution, French national law applies in full, subject to limited local adaptations. Primary legislation is enacted nationally and published in the Journal Officiel de la République française (JORF) via Légifrance, while local administrative acts appear in deliberations of the Région and Département de la Guadeloupe and in the Préfecture's Recueil des actes administratifs. The judicial hierarchy runs through the Tribunal judiciaire (Pointe-à-Pitre and Basse-Terre) and the Cour d'appel de Basse-Terre, with the Tribunal administratif de la Guadeloupe on the administrative side; the Cour de cassation and the Conseil d'État sit as supreme courts. Legal materials are published in French.
French law moves quickly — the major codes are amended continuously, and Guadeloupe layers on local adaptations, préfectoral orders, and EU outermost-region rules, alongside recurring debate over the territory's statutory evolution. Citations to superseded articles can simply be wrong. Point-in-time data straight from the source is what keeps a Guadeloupe legal research answer correct today.
