TheBoletín Oficial del Estado (BOE; "Official State Gazette", from 1661 to 1936 known as theGaceta de Madrid, "Madrid Gazette") is theofficial gazette of theKingdom of Spain and may be published on any day of the week. The content of theBOE is authorized and published by Royal Assent and with approval from theSpanish Presidency Office.

TheBOE publishesdecrees by theCortes Generales, Spain's Parliament (comprising theSenate and theCongress of Deputies) as well as those orders enacted by theSpanish Autonomous Communities. The Spanish Constitution of 1978 provides in Article 9.3 that "The Constitution guarantees ... the publication of laws." This includes the official publishing of all Spanish judicial, royal and national governmental decrees, as well as any orders by the Council of Ministers.

According to Royal Decree 181/2008^[1] of 8 February, theBOE is the official journal of the Kingdom of Spain, providing the State Government the means to publish mandatory laws, regulations and other acts approved by the parliaments. It therefore contains a comprehensive list of all Laws passed in parliament, the provisions adopted by the Government of Spain and the general provisions of the Autonomous Communities.

Following Law 11/2007 of 22 June, concerning the electronic access of citizens to Public Services, and Royal Decree 181/2008 of 8 February, concerning the official gazette, the publication ceased in its traditional print format on 31 December 2008 and switched to an online mode of dissemination.

Since 2009, the gazette is now primarily published electronically. Each individual notice is now published as its own electronic document, pagination begins and ends every year with each notice following a continuous page numbering system.
