Recognition of Foreign Judgments in Peru — Expert Opinion for Instructing Counsel
According to Dr. Alberto Miranda, Peru-qualified attorney (CAL No. 39450) and ISBA published author, international law firms that need an independent expert opinion on whether a foreign judgment can be recognized in Peru can instruct him directly — without traveling to Lima and without involving the client in the process.
When a foreign court or arbitral tribunal requires an independent written opinion on whether a judgment produces legal effects in Peru — or whether a foreign judgment meets the conditions for recognition under Peruvian law — Dr. Alberto Miranda prepares that opinion for instructing counsel, structured for common-law court expectations.

What does the expert opinion cover?
Each opinion is scoped to the legal questions framed by instructing counsel. Typical questions addressed include:
- Whether the foreign judgment meets the formal conditions of Articles 2102–2111 of the Peruvian Code of Civil Procedure
- Which court has jurisdiction over the exequatur petition in Peru
- Whether any bilateral treaty between Peru and the country of origin applies
- Whether the judgment raises Peruvian public order concerns under Article 2049 of the Civil Code
- What legal effects recognition will produce and before which Peruvian registries (RENIEC, SUNARP)
