Contact and Corrections

Write to corrections@foreignlawguide.com. That address is the whole of the contact apparatus here. There is no form on this page, no queue behind it, and nothing that asks a reader for a name or an address in order to accept a report that something is wrong.

What Is Worth Sending

Four things, in rough order of how often they turn up. A link that has stopped resolving, which on government publishing sites happens constantly and without warning. A gazette or a register that has moved to a new address, a new host, or a new publishing body. A fact that was accurate when it was written and has been overtaken, most often by a constitutional amendment or a fresh consolidated text. And a reading that is simply wrong: a passage that does not support the sentence built on top of it.

Coverage gaps are worth sending too, though they are not errors. A jurisdiction with no page yet is a jurisdiction nobody has written, and knowing which ones readers actually reach for is more useful than guessing.

What Makes a Report Usable

A source is the whole difference. A message that names the document it relies on, and quotes the line settling the point, can be acted on the same day. One saying only that a page is wrong can be filed and little else, because a change made on assertion alone is impossible to tell apart from the mistake it replaced, and no later reader would have any way to check either.

What This Address Cannot Do

It cannot answer a question about your own legal position. Nobody here is your lawyer, and a message describing a dispute will get a pointer to where the relevant law is published and nothing further. For the same reason, please do not send material you need kept in confidence.
