Macau law is broadly based on Portugal|Portuguese law, and therefore part of the civil law tradition of continental European legal systems. Portuguese law is itself highly influenced by Germany|German law. However, many other influences are present, including Chinese law, Italy|Italian law, and some narrow aspects of common law.
The legal system of Macau was substantially modified in 1999, as a result of the transfer of sovereignty as well as the approval of a new Civil Code and a new Commercial Code. The latter has been translated into English language|English.
