En Uruguay los referéndum son obligatorios, e impone un mandato que debe ser cumplido sin más trámite y que obviamente no se puede desconocer. No existe el referéndum optativo. No obstante se debe distinguir: que el sufragio es obligatorio para el Cuerpo Electoral, y que también es obligatorio el resultado del pronunciamiento popular. Es decir, que son obligatorios en ambos sentidos.
