The right record depends on the event, the registry or court and the purpose for which it will be used. We assist international clients seeking Argentine birth, marriage and death certificates, as well as divorce records.
Select the situation closest to yours.
We begin with the person’s full name, date and place of birth and any available copy or registry reference to identify the search.
We review the spouses’ names, date and place of marriage and the intended use of the certificate.
We use the deceased’s details and the date and place of death to identify the relevant record and request requirements.
A divorce may involve court documents and a marriage record with an annotation. We clarify what the receiving institution needs before defining the request.
We collect names, dates, locations and any available references or earlier copies.
We review whether the intended use calls for a particular format, annotation, authentication or translation.
We assist with the relevant registry or court process and follow up on available responses.
We coordinate any agreed authentication or translation work and confirm how the record will be delivered.
A certificate, a court decision and an apostilled document are not interchangeable. Knowing the intended use helps avoid obtaining a record that does not meet the recipient’s request.
Choose an option to see what to prepare for an initial review.
Send a clear copy of the entire document. Registry references can help identify the correct record and what updated version may be needed.
Provide every known detail, including alternative spellings. We assess whether there is enough information to start a focused request.
Explain what is known and what the record is needed for. A preliminary search may be required and availability cannot be assumed.
Start with what you have. The document list for your matter will depend on the facts and the agreed scope.
We assess the relevant Argentine jurisdiction and record type. Availability and procedure depend on the registry or court holding the record.
No. The available information and the records held by the authority determine the search. We explain the scope before proceeding.
We review the document and destination requirements and coordinate authentication where appropriate. The record’s format and issuing authority matter.
We first clarify whether the recipient needs the judgment, proof of its status or an annotated marriage certificate, rather than assuming one document serves every purpose.
Send any previous copy, your birth details and the recipient’s instructions. We can identify the record request and any authentication or translation to coordinate.
