The Constitution of Kiribati is the supreme law of Kiribati, which was promulgated in 1979, and was amended in 1995 and in 2016.

Kiribati's independence has been granted by the United Kingdom by virtue of the Kiribati Independence Order 1979 (UK) and the Republic of Kiribati became an independent constitutional republic as sovereign and democratic state, and the 41st member of the Commonwealth of Nations, on 12 July 1979.

The Constitution is divided into 10 chapters and 2 schedules.
