The Barbados slave code was set up by the English in order to provide a legal base for slavery in the Caribbean island. Under its provisions, slave owners were required to provide clothing for their slaves; but the slaves were denied even the basic rights guaranteed by English common law.

South Carolina adopted the code in 1696, and it formed the legal basis of slave law in many English colonies in North America.
