The Pirate Party (Latvian: Pirātu Partija) is a political NGO and self-styled political party in Latvia. Based on the model of the Sweden Pirate Party, it supports strengthening citizens' rights, reform of copyright and changes in patent laws.[1] The party was founded in 2010 in Riga, and is a member of Pirate Parties International.[2]

The "Pirate Society" (Latvian: Pirātu biedrība) was registered on March 6, 2012. The 'party' never registered as one and continues as a NGO.[3]

By 2012, the party claimed to have 6 activists, more than 400 members on the Facebook group, nearly 200 followers on Twitter, and 9 people attending the latest weekly pirate bar. As of 2016,[4] the party was still active and, as of 2021, is still listed as an active member of Pirate Party International.[5]
