The Constitution of the United States was ratified on September 17, 1787.
Actually, while the Constitution reached its final form on September 17, 1787, it was, according to Article 7, not "ratified" until at least 9 states had ratified it. The 9th state to do so was New Hampshire, which ratified it on June 21, 1788.
The final state to ratify it was Rhode Island on May 29, 1790, so you could also consider that a valid answer to the question.

∙ 13y agoThe Constitution was ratified June 21, 1788, when the ninth State, New Hampshire, voted 57-47 to accept the new government. The Constitution specifically provided for adoption upon ratification of nine of the thirteen states, although the framers hoped for (and eventually received) unanimous support.
The federal government became operational on March 4, 1789.
