Law/Patents - Cooking / Culinary / Marriage | | Spanish term or phrase: CERTIFICADO DEL ACTA DE MATRIMONIO | Paraguay:
This is the title of a document. Is "certificado del acta" just a repetition, or does this mean more than simply "marriage certificate"?
Thanks. |
| | | Certified Record of Marriage | Explanation:
OR: Certified Marriage Record.
It's a Marriage Certificate, and one that is certified. Not likely to be the same as the original, but a certification of the record made by the Registro Civil providing the data.

I offer this as a solution to the apparent redundancy problem, because it is actually not redundant, what they generally provide is a certification of the record done on another form, whereas in other places they might provide an exact certified copy of the actual original document or recording. |
