Senarai formula enakmen

Formula enakmen, atau klausa enakmen, adalah satu kata-kata pendek (seperti tetapi bukan mukadimah) yang memperkenalkan peruntukan-peruntukan utama undang-undang yang dikuatkuasakan badan perundangan. Ia lazimnya mengistiharkan sumber di mana undang-undang itu mendapat kuasanya. Dalam negara lain formula enakmen tidak dianggap perlu dan diabaikan.

Formula enakmen paling mudah hanya menyatakan badan perundangan yang mana undang-undang terpakai, sebagai contoh di Malaysia semenjak tahun 1995 formula yang terpakai adalah "DIPERBUAT oleh Parlimen Malaysia seperti berikut:". Secara alternatifnya suatu formula enakmen boleh merujuk kepada komponen-komponen satu perundangan seperti formula enakmen yang terpakai di Malaysia sebelum tahun 1995:

Sebagai contoh di California, formula enakmen adalah "Rakyat Negeri California membuat seperti berikut:".
