Hello,
I am in a process of legalizing my 'acta de matrimonio' in the embassy of the Netherlands. This week the embassy called me to let me know that there was a mistake in the Acta, and that I have to get a new one, else they won't legalize it (and I will loose the 236 euro fee I had to pay for legalization).
I got a new acta yesterday and legalized it in the Junta Central. However, now I noticed that the acta is signed by another person supposedly empowered by the oficial of the estado civil (it says p/o or something and then the sign of someone, but not of the oficial whose name is under the acta.
I am a bit afraid the dutch embassy will make problems about this. Does anyone know if this is normal practise and if it should be accepted like this, or should I go back to the oficialia and get a new one, signed by the oficial herself?
gr. Mauricio
