Paraguay Property Buying: RUN Informe de Condiciones de Dominio
Prepare Paraguayan property identifiers and applicant-interest evidence for the RUN dominio report, using the current court regulation rather than an old checklist.

Coverage: Paraguay Registro Unificado Nacional property-publicity regulation and official court services; confirm current implementation and transaction requirements with the competent office and escribano.
Use the current regulatory context
Paraguay’s Supreme Court publishes the Registro Unificado Nacional, RUN, cadastral-registry regulation under Acordada 1823 of December 2025. Its property-publicity rules provide a more relevant starting point than an undated checklist copied from an earlier registry system.
For a proposed acquisition, ask the escribano which current RUN service and supporting documents apply. Record the property’s existing identifiers exactly as supplied. Do not invent a new identifier or assume a reference appearing on an earlier deed has ceased to be useful merely because the registry organisation has changed.
Identify the inmueble precisely
Article 106 of the published regulation describes an informe de condiciones de dominio concerning registered parties, charges, restrictions and annotations. Its request fields identify the property through matrícula, finca or, where available, Código Único de Identificación Catastral Registral, CUICR.
Collect the appropriate references from the seller’s documents and ask the adviser to resolve any mismatch with the advertisement. If the offered interest includes several parcels or a separate accessory, determine which references and reports are needed for each. Precision in the request matters before interpreting the answer.
- Keep matrícula, finca and any available CUICR accurately labelled.
- Identify each property component included in the offer.
- Ask which current RUN service answers the particular enquiry.
Prepare authority and purpose for the request
The same article provides for requests by individuals or legal entities and lists documentary evidence of the relevant connection or legitimate interest and the enquiry’s purpose, alongside the completed form and applicable charges. Broad wording about who can request the report should not be read as permission to omit the listed requirements.
Ask the competent office or escribano which evidence is suitable for the actual applicant. Keep a report and any separately specified certificate distinct in the worksheet. The court’s official service description lists both reports and certificates; let the professional explain their role in the proposed transaction.
Fictional example: references on an older deed
This scenario is invented and does not establish the registration position of Paraguayan land.
The buyer resolves the reference before ordering
A buyer receives an older deed containing a finca reference while a marketing sheet uses another number. The buyer gives both documents to the escribano and asks which identifier belongs in the current enquiry.
The file preserves the two references, the explanation connecting them and the applicant-interest evidence. The buyer does not substitute a neighbouring property result simply because it is easier to find or assume the marketing number is the official identifier.
Read the result alongside the acquisition documents
Ask for an explanation of relevant parties, restrictions and annotations, and which supporting entries or documents must be obtained. Arrange appropriate physical, boundary, access and intended-use checks. A report about registry conditions does not inspect a building or measure an advertised parcel on the ground.
Browse Paraguay listings through the country links below and request comparable document scopes for each candidate. Record the actual interest and inclusions being sold. MarkMyProperty supports discovery and comparison; it does not certify RUN documents, applicant authority, legal boundaries or a property’s registry status.

Frequently asked questions
Which identifiers does Article 106 mention?
Matrícula, finca or CUICR where available. Ask the adviser to establish the correct reference for the actual property.
Does any applicant wording remove documentary requirements?
No. The published request requirements also address the applicant’s connection or legitimate interest and enquiry purpose.
Can I use an earlier procedure without checking it?
Confirm the current RUN service and office requirements. The article uses the published December 2025 regulation as its starting point.
