John Rene Plaut

EXEQUATUR, from the Latin meaning to run, procedure of private international law. It consists of the prior authorization that must be given by the Supreme Court of Justice for the fulfillment of a resolution issued by a foreign court. Strictly it is the verification of the legality of what is required by a foreign court in another territory where it has no jurisdiction so that, if it complies with local regulations, it is proceeded to be executed. For example, in a divorce exequatur, your permission, leads to the acceptance in the second country of a divorce made in another, being validated, for all purposes, as if it had been carried out in the second country In Chile the procedure is available throughout the year in offices of the Corporation of Legal Assistance (CAJ), office under the Ministry of Justice.
