Refusal of final registration
The Portuguese Civil Code, 1867The Land Registrar may refuse to accept for final registration documents which are manifestly null, void or illegal and in the case of private documents those in which the signature are not attested when they are found doubtful. In such case after stating the reason for refusal the Land Registrar shall effect the registration but provisionally. § 1 - If the refusal arises from the attestation of signature, the registration shall be converted into final upon presentation of the document duly attested, or accompanied by proof by the authenticity of the signature. § 2 - If the refusal is based on nullity or illegality of the document the issue shall be decided by the judicial authority after hearing the Public Ministry, and the registration shall become final when the decision which declares it as such, has become final and is presented to the Land Registrar.
