Notarial acts are public instruments in which Notaries, upon request of a party in any case, will extend and authorize stating the facts and circumstances that are witnessed or recorded and that by their nature are not the subject of a contract.
All of them are regulated in section 4 of Chapter II of Title IV, of Decree June 2, 1944, by which the Regulation of the organization and regime of the Notary was approved.
IT IS NECESSARY:

The Notary is required to appear at a specific place and attest to the state of a certain asset at a specific time, being able to take photographs of it if necessary.
