Martinique legal data from official sources, structured for AI and legaltech.
Martinican laws, regulations, and court decisions live across the Journal officiel de la République française (JORF) on Légifrance, the Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique, the Préfecture de la Martinique, 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 Martinique coverage is not yet live; Team and Enterprise customers can request priority onboarding of the sources below.

Which law created Martinique's single territorial collectivity, the Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique?
Law No. 2011-884 of 27 July 2011 on the territorial collectivities of Guyane and Martinique (loi relative aux collectivités territoriales de Guyane et de Martinique) merged the former department and region into a single Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique, which took effect after the December 2015 territorial elections. It was published in the Journal officiel de la République française (JORF).

Martinican legal source types we structure
Martinican legal coverage will include primary legislation, secondary legislation, regulatory materials, court decisions, guidance, enforcement documents, and legislative history where available.
Legislation & Regulations
National laws (lois), ordinances (ordonnances), decrees (décrets), and ministerial orders (arrêtés) that apply in Martinique under the identity-legislation principle for overseas departments, plus local deliberations and acts of the Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique and the Préfecture — taken directly from the Journal officiel (JORF) on Légifrance and official publications.
Legislative History
Bills (projets and propositions de loi) and parliamentary materials from the Assemblée nationale and the Sénat, together with deliberations of the Assemblée de Martinique, where available — version by version, each tied to its source.
Regulatory Guidance & Enforcement
Guidance, notices, deliberations, decisions, and enforcement materials from the French regulators that apply in Martinique, such as the CNIL, the Autorité de la concurrence, the AMF, and ARCEP, alongside locally competent bodies like the ARS de Martinique.
Case Law
Court and tribunal decisions from official and authoritative French sources, including the Cour d'appel de Fort-de-France, the Tribunal administratif de la Martinique, and apex rulings of the Cour de cassation and the Conseil d'État, where available.
One Martinican legal data layer. Four ways to use it.
Lawstronaut API
Query Martinican 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. Martinique coverage is being onboarded — the endpoint below is live and will return records as coverage lands.
GET /v2/contents?iso=MQ&limit=20Lawstronaut MCP
Connect ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, and other AI agents to Martinican legal sources. Questions become live searches against the corpus and return citation-ready answers grounded in official Martinican materials — deployable in minutes, with no integration work, once coverage is live.
AI Agent Integration
Give your legal AI agent same-turn provenance: it retrieves current Martinican legal materials — official source links, metadata, and full text — before generating an answer, with a citation and timestamp on every response.

Why Lawstronaut for Martinican legal research
Martinican legal information is spread across the national Journal officiel and Légifrance, government ministries, French regulators, the Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique, the Préfecture, and the courts. For humans, that means slow research — and it means separating the national rules that apply automatically from the local adaptations specific to the overseas department. 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 Martinique legal coverage
Martinique is a French overseas department and region (DROM) in the Caribbean, governed under Article 73 of the French Constitution. It is a civil-law jurisdiction in which French national law applies by the principle of legislative identity, subject to limited local adaptations; since 1 January 2016 a single territorial collectivity, the Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique (CTM), exercises the powers formerly split between the department and the region. Primary legislation is published in the Journal officiel de la République française (JORF) and consolidated on Légifrance, while local deliberations and prefectoral acts appear in the recueils des actes administratifs. The judiciary runs through the Cour d'appel de Fort-de-France and the Tribunal administratif de la Martinique, with the Cour de cassation and the Conseil d'État at the apex, and legal materials are published in French.
Martinican law tracks French law closely, so it changes at the pace of national reform: the Collectivité Territoriale de Martinique was created by Law No. 2011-884 of 27 July 2011, the Loi Égalité réelle outre-mer (Law No. 2017-256 of 28 February 2017) reshaped overseas equality policy, and the EU General Data Protection Regulation with the Loi Informatique et Libertés applies in full. Citations to superseded provisions can simply be wrong. Point-in-time data straight from the source is what keeps a Martinique legal research answer correct today.
