Spanish term

con residencia en

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) Power of Attorney
I know that this literally means "residing in" or "domiciled", but when it's referring to a Notary Public, is it referring to his work address rather than his home address, so would it be more appropriate to say "with registered office in the Capital" or "whose registered office is in the Capital"? Alternatively, could it be referring to where the Notary Association is located?

Many thanks for your help.

Marie-Helene Dubois Aug 12, 2013:
just a note about "domiciled" Under UK (common law) legislation, "domiciled" means "resident for tax purposes" and the place where someone is domiciled could be different to the place where they live. It is therefore risky to use "domicile" in English to mean "where someone lives/resides", because it could be interpreted differently by a purely UK readership.

Thanks. That's a helpful point.

Ruth Don't think in terms of "registered office" for a Notary, but simply of his/her office/practice address. A registered office is only applicable to a Company.

whose adddress is at/practising at

2 other ways of doing this
Notary certificates in, e.g. England, state "a Notary practising at ------ (adress)
"residencia" has a wider meaning in Spanish than English
Peer comment(s):
agree Adrian MM. (X) : historically, as per the Worshipful Company of Scriveners = City of London Notaries, the notarial residence used to coincide with the practice address, but no more.//Yes. We or the other respondents will need to dip into Brooke's Notary for the history.

"practice address" is the crux here and the SP term is used in this wider context, i.e. can both mean where someone lives and where that person carries on a profession

your second instance would be

residing in the Provincial Capital.

Note that these things always refer the capital of the province, NOT the country.

I actually answered you first instance of residencia. The actual answer is the second reference but I will not put in another answer.

Ruth, I don't think it refers to his domestic residence but his professional residence.

the above quote goes on to say

(where they have) their office.
Note from asker:
So it's referring to where the Notary actually lives rather than where his office is based. I just wondered why people would want to know where he lives. Wouldn't the place where he works or where his office is based be more relevant?
I think you're right, Bill. Cheers.
Peer comment(s):
agree Neil Ashby : Interesting stuff Bill, shame the very last part of their oath is missing. Will search for it myself. ;)

Thanks Neil. I am not sure what you mean by last part of oath.....

Thanks TT.
agree Marie-Helene Dubois : I think it means "residing in" in this sense. Rather than showing the notary's home address, it is specifying that he resides in the capital (of Catalunya).

Thus you rid yourself of all the controversy over "reside".
