The Foreign Law Guide (FLG) is an essential database offering relevant information on sources of foreign and comparative law, including complete bibliographic citations to legislation, the existence of English translations and selected references to secondary sources.

The print publication began in the 1990s and moved to the web in 2000.

Approximately 190 jurisdictions are systemically covered and updated by a global team of experts.

Each jurisdiction has a “main page” where you will find information on the government and legal system, primary sources of law, other print and online sources that are useful, and laws of the jurisdiction arranged by subject.
