Registration is the action of transcribing a document in a register, carried out by an office different from that issuing the document and specifically entrusted with that function. When registration takes place, the number assigned to the document in the register is included in the document with a formula attesting to that action. The formula and registration number may be added to the document, not by the registration office, but by the notary or lawyer responsible for the compilation of the document, following proper authorization by the registration office.
