Declaration on The Citizens’ Rights and Fundamental Principles of San Marino Constitutional Order 1974, as amended to 2002. The English translation of the 2019 Amendment is not publicly available. It concerns Art. 4 and was translated in-house by UN Women. As the Declaration regulates the rights and duties of the citizens and the public administration in connection with electoral matters, it is considered to serve some of the functions of a Constitution.
