The public deed (escritura pública), and the notary (escribano)
A Paraguayan power for significant acts is an escritura pública before an escribano público, who keeps the protocol and issues a first certified copy (primer testimonio).
The instrument carries the escribano's registry number and the folio, and those references are what a counterparty checks. We reproduce them.
Registration, and property
Powers for registrable acts are inscribed in the Dirección General de los Registros Públicos, and property is identified by finca number and the padrón.
A power that does not enumerate the disposal, or that identifies the property loosely, is refused. We reproduce the property references exactly.
Powers granted abroad
Paraguay is a party to the Apostille Convention, so a power signed before a US notary and apostilled is the usual route, followed by protocolisation in Paraguay for registrable acts.
Paraguayan consulates also exercise notarial functions. We name the issuing office because the route determines what else is needed.
The identity card (cédula), Guaraní and the identifiers
Parties are identified by cédula de identidad civil and a company by its RUC with a check digit.
Paraguay is genuinely bilingual and Guaraní is an official language, so a notarial instrument may record that the act was explained in Guaraní. That recital is part of the instrument. See our Spanish page.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page with no word cap, and it comes back typically within 24 hours as a PDF formatted to mirror the original, with a signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead. Marginal annotations are translated in place, in the margin, and every seal, stamp and registry endorsement is translated with the text. See how we translate and certified versus standard.
