B-42. INTER-AMERICAN CONVENTION ON EXECUTION
OF PREVENTIVE MEASURES
1. Uruguay:
(Statement made at the time of signature)
The scope of public order:
Uruguay wishes to state that it expressly ratifies the line of
thought enunciated in Panama at CIDIP-I, reaffirming its genuine Pan
American spirit and its clear and positive decision to contribute
with its ideas and endorsement to the successful development of the
legal community.
This line of thinking and conduct has been evidenced in
undoubtable form by the unreserved ratification by Uruguay of all
the Conventions of Panama, approved by law number 14,534 in 1976.
In line with the foregoing, Uruguay gives its affirmative vote
to the formula regarding public order. Nevertheless, Uruguay wishes
to state expressly and clearly that, in accordance with the position
it maintained in Panama, its interpretation of the aforementioned
exception refers to international public order as an individual
juridical institution, not necessarily identifiable with the
internal public order of each state.
Therefore, in the opinion of Uruguay, the approved formula
conveys an exceptional authorization to the various States Parties
to declare in a nondiscretionary and well-founded manner that the
precepts of foreign law are inapplicable whenever these concretely
and in a serious and open manner offend the standards and principles
essential to the international public order on which each individual
state bases its legal individuality.
On September 27, 2021, Uruguay informed the depository on the designation
of the Autoridad Central de Cooperación Jurídica Internacional as the central authority.
a. Argentina:
(Provided information in accordance with Article 13)
Appointed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Worship as the

On May 23, 2008, Argentina informed the depository on the designation of the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Commerce and Worship / Directorate-General for Legal Affairs
as the central authority.
On April 26, 2022, the Permanent Mission of Argentina to the OAS informed the depositary
of the designation of Aldana Rohr, Director of the Directorate of International Legal Assistance (DAJIN)
as the central authority for the purposes of the Inter-American Convention on Execution of Preventive Measures.
b. Uruguay:
(Declaration made at the time of ratification)
With the declaration made at the time of signature.
