The sovereignty is the power of the state which is independent from any other internal or external powers. The sovereignty is the attribute of the power of the state or the right of the state, whose condition is the existence of the state independent of any other state. The purpose of this contribution is to provide the impact of European Union member states sovereignty. The concept of sovereignty is changing because of the integration of the states in supranational European Union. The sovereignty of all member states of European Union is limited upon the international treaties which create the field of this supranational organization. The Fiscal union, the Eurozone, limiting of the designation of top officials, limiting the development of foreign relations or limiting the justice are some examples of limitation of sovereignty in European Union. Last part of this contribution deals with specific examples of limitation of sovereignty which are actual today. The last chapter deals with the limitation of sovereignty in Kosovo, which is the typical example of the relation between sovereignty and self-determination like two basic norms of international law which often appear in contradiction to each other, Ukraine, whose state sovereignty is questioned, the Basque territory whose habitants consider to be a nation, whose main purpose is to create their own state with their own sovereignty and Gibraltar, the British overseas territory.
