Mayotte legal data from official sources, structured for AI and legaltech.
Mahoran laws, regulations, and court decisions live across the Journal officiel de la République française (Légifrance), the Recueil des actes administratifs of the Préfecture de Mayotte, government ministries, 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 Mayotte coverage is not yet live; Team and Enterprise customers can request priority onboarding of the sources below.

One Mahoran legal data layer. Four ways to use it.
Lawstronaut API
Query Mahoran 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. Mayotte coverage is being onboarded — the endpoint below is live and will return records as coverage lands.
GET /v2/contents?iso=YT&limit=20Lawstronaut MCP

Why Lawstronaut for Mahoran legal research
Mahoran legal information is spread across the national gazette and Légifrance, prefectural acts, the departmental collectivity, national regulators, and the courts. 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 Mayotte legal coverage
Mayotte is a French overseas department and region (DROM) in the Indian Ocean, and an outermost region of the European Union, so it is a civil-law jurisdiction where French national law applies, with adaptations specific to the territory. Primary legislation is enacted by the French Parliament and published in the Journal officiel de la République française, consolidated on Légifrance (legifrance.gouv.fr); local measures are issued by the Préfecture de Mayotte and the Conseil départemental and published in the Recueil des actes administratifs. Justice is administered through the Tribunal judiciaire de Mamoudzou and the Cour d'appel de Mamoudzou, with administrative matters before the Tribunal administratif de Mayotte and final review by the Cour de cassation and the Conseil d'État. National regulators such as the CNIL, the Autorité de la concurrence, the ACPR, and ARCEP apply. Legal materials are published in French.
Mahoran law moves quickly: since departmentalisation in 2011 the territory's historic local personal-status law has been progressively aligned with mainland French civil law, EU rules apply as they do in other outermost regions, and emergency and reconstruction legislation following Cyclone Chido in December 2024 has added territory-specific provisions — so citations to outdated or superseded rules can simply be wrong. Point-in-time data straight from the source is what keeps a Mayotte legal research answer correct today.
