What does it consist of?
Emancipation is a legal process that allows individuals over the age of 16 (but under 18) to manage their life and assets as adults, although with certain restrictions. An emancipated minor cannot apply for loans, mortgage or sell real estate, commercial or industrial businesses, or high-value assets without the authorization of their parents or legal guardians.
Required Documentation
National ID card of the parents.
National ID card of the minor seeking emancipation.
The original family record book.
If the minor has no known parents or if they are deceased, they will be under legal guardianship. In this case, the guardian must appear at the notary’s office with a valid national ID card and present the original court ruling that appoints them as the guardian to formalize the emancipation.
In what situations can this service be used?
The reasons behind emancipation may vary, including:
Some minors, despite their age, demonstrate enough maturity to take care of themselves and make autonomous decisions.
The minor personally seeks emancipation, feeling the need for independence.
The parents wish for the minor to take on their own responsibilities. This decision may be driven by rebellious behavior or family tensions.
