Termination of the Present War (Definition) Act 1918 was a piece of legislation passed by the British Parliament in 1918.

This act made provision and offered guidance as regards how the British Government would determine that the First World War had come to an end. Discretion was granted to His Majesty in Council to issue orders, which would legally determine the matter.[1]
