  • Se readecuan los parámetros del Reporte Sistemático Mensual (a presentar electrónicamente hasta el día 15 de cada mes) sobre: compraventas de inmuebles por montos superiores a 750 Salarios Mínimos, Vitales y Móviles; donaciones; y actos otorgados en el extranjero sobre derechos reales.
  • Se establecen reglas de monitoreo, alertas tecnológicas, debida diligencia de clientes y beneficiarios finales, conservación de documentación por 10 años y reporte de operaciones sospechosas dentro de las 24 horas.
La Resolución entrará en vigor a los 90 días corridos de su publicación (es decir, el 8 de noviembre de 2026), derogando la Resolución UIF N° 41/2011 y el artículo 12 de la Resolución UIF N° 70/2011, fijándose un plazo de 240 días corridos para la adecuación de manuales, Código de Conducta y tecnología.

UIF approves the new anti-money laundering regulation for Real Estate Registries

By means of Resolution No. 93/2026 (the “Resolution”), published in the Official Gazette on August 10, 2026, the Financial Information Unit (the “UIF”) approved the new regulations on Anti-Money Laundering, Counter-Financing of Terrorism and Counter-Proliferation Financing (“AML/CFT/CPF”) applicable to Real Estate Registries as Obligated Entities.


Pursuant to the Resolution:

  • The regulatory framework of the sector is modernized through the adoption of a Risk-Based Approach, requiring the implementation of an AML/CFT/CPF Prevention System aligned with the National Risk Assessments and FATF international standards.
  • Procedural redundancies are eliminated by expressly suppressing the requirement of requesting an Affidavit regarding compliance with AML/CFT/CPF provisions from the Obligated Entity.
  • The parameters for the Monthly Systematic Report (to be submitted electronically by the 15th of each month) are readjusted regarding: real estate purchases/sales exceeding 750 Minimum, Vital, and Adjustable Living Wages; donations; and acts executed abroad concerning real property rights.
  • Rules are set forth for monitoring,  technological alerts, due diligence on clients and ultimate beneficial owners, document retention for 10 years, and reporting of suspicious transactions within 24 hours.
The Resolution will enter into force 90 calendar days following its publication (i.e., November 8, 2026), repealing UIF Resolution No. 41/2011 and Article 12 of UIF Resolution No. 70/2011, establishing a 240-calendar-day period for adjusting manuals, Code of Conduct, and technology.
