The Ley de Inquilinato, and the Civil Code
Salvadoran residential tenancy is governed by a dedicated Ley de Inquilinato alongside the Civil Code, regulating terms, increases and the grounds for recovering possession.
The contract states the term and the statute sets the floor. We reproduce the citation where the lease makes one.
Dollars, since 2001
El Salvador uses the US dollar, so rent figures need no conversion and there is no exchange rate question. Documents from before 2001 state colones at the fixed conversion.
That makes a Salvadoran lease unusually easy for a US reader to assess. We reproduce the unit as printed where an older document uses colones.
The deposit, and the guarantee
One or two months' deposit is the market norm and a fiador is frequently required, named with identity details and sometimes property.
The guarantor position is statutory rather than a US-style co-signature, and we describe it.
The DUI, and the property reference
Parties are identified by DUI, nine digits, which does not change, and a business by its NIT or, in current documents, the DUI in its place.
The property is identified by its registry entry at the Centro Nacional de Registros, and we reproduce the reference. See our Spanish page.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page of up to 250 words, 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.
