A referendum on autonomy was held in Guadeloupe on 7 December 2003.^[1] Voters were asked whether they wanted the island to become a territorial collectivity,^[2] which would have given the regional government more autonomy.^[3] The proposal was rejected by 73% of voters.^[1]

In simultaneous referendums, Saint Martin and Saint Barthélemy both voted to become overseas collectivities, gaining autonomy from Guadeloupe.^[2]
