Roy of Sealand Constitutions of 1975 and of 1989 (2009)

This Constitution comes into effect on August 8, 1989, the day following its adoption. It is the basis of all future activities of Sealand.
The Basic Law (BL) is binding above all for the exiled Government of Sealand and is directly binding for the representatives of the government. The strict exigencies of the Constitution for the nomination and upkeep of a firm seat for all governmental initiatives are part of the grounds for the exile. The nomination of a seat is seen as independent of the measures or attitudes of the organs of the host country and is inalienable.
