Communist Party for Independence and Socialism (French: Parti Communiste pour l'Indépendance et le Socialisme, PCLS; French: Pati Kominis pou Lendépandans èk Sosyalism in Martinican Creole, PKLS is a communist and pro-independence political party in Martinique.

The party defines itself as a Marxist–Leninist party. It boycotts the political institutions and does not take part in elections.

It publishes the monthly "Patriyote".

In 1984 an important faction of the Martinican Communist Party, who were unhappy with the party's acceptance of the decentralisation laws, broke away and founded the PKLS on May 22, 1984. The date of the party's foundation purposely coincide with the Martinican Slave revolt of 1848.
