The Constitution of the Republic of Iraq (Arabic: دستور جمهورية العراق Kurdish: دەستووری عێراق) is the fundamental law of Iraq. The first constitution came into force in 1925. The current constitution was adopted on September 18, 2005 by the Transitional National Assembly of Iraq,[1] and confirmed by constitutional referendum, held on October 15, 2005.[2] It was published on December 28, 2005 in the Official Gazette of Iraq (No. 4012), in Arabic original,[3] and thus came into force. An official translation into English for international use was produced in cooperation between Iraqi state authorities and the United Nations' Office for Constitutional Support.[4][5] Since 2006, several proposals for adoption of various constitutional amendments were initiated. The Kurdish language is official at state level.[6]
