The Conservative Democrats of Slovakia (Slovak: Konzervatívni demokrati Slovenska, KDS) is a defunct Slovak political party established by four MPs (František Mikloško, Vladimír Palko, Rudolf Bauer and Pavol Minárik) who belonged to the Christian Democratic Movement, but left it on 21 February 2008 over disagreements with the party leader.

Members of the preparatory committee of KDS were Vladimír Palko, František Mikloško, Vladimír Pčolinský, Pavol Minárik, Rudolf Bauer and the press spokesman of the planned party was Jaroslav Daniška.

The party was established in July 2008. Vladimír Palko became its chairman.

In 2014, the party was dissolved following Rudolf Bauer’s failure in the Košice mayoral elections.
