About the Notario San Luis Potosí Exam

Independent practice for San Luis Potosí's notary exams by OpenExamPrep. Under the Ley del Notariado del Estado de San Luis Potosí, as reformed in December 2024, candidates first pass an aspirante exam and then compete in a public oposición for each vacant or new notaría. Both exams pair a drafting test with oral questions before a three-member jury, and 80 out of 100 passes. This bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation, not an official translation or format simulation. It is built on the state statute, the Ley Agraria and federal company law, and it keeps the Spanish legal terms. Its topic split is our own study allocation, because no official weights are published.

Exam sponsor: Dirección del Notariado, Secretaría General de Gobierno del Estado de San Luis Potosí. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Assessment

Aspirante exam (Article 22): on a date set by the Dirección del Notariado, the candidate drafts an instrument on a topic drawn from ten sealed topics proposed by the Colegio and the Dirección, then answers the jurors' questions on that case; the jury grades in closed session. Oposición (Articles 14, 23–25): when a notaría is vacant or created, the Executive publishes the call three times, ten days apart, and candidates apply within thirty business days of the last publication. One oposición is held per notaría. Candidates draft an instrument in five continuous hours in a public session; then, in public and in order of application, each juror questions them on notarial law, and the secretary reads their practical work. The jury gives one grade for both tests; 80 of 100 passes, and the top score wins. The Governor issues constancias and patentes within thirty business days (Article 28).

Time Limit

Five continuous hours for the oposición's drafting test, followed by an oral theoretical test with no set duration

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can become an aspirante in San Luis Potosí?

Potosino citizens with five years' residence in the State, a law cédula and professional experience, and two uninterrupted years of notarial practice under a State notary (or a registered postgraduate specialty in notarial law), among the other Article 16 requirements. Since December 2024, final convictions for family violence, gender-based or sexual crimes, and unpaid maintenance debts are also disqualifying.

How are the exams graded?

After both tests, the three jurors give one grade in closed session, by consensus or else by majority. The minimum is 80 on a 0–100 scale; in the oposición the highest score wins, and the jury's decision admits no appeal (Article 25).

What happens after failing, and is there another route to a notaría?

A candidate scoring below 80 must wait at least six months before sitting again (Articles 22 and 25). An adscrito who has served uninterruptedly for the last two years replaces a departing titular without an oposición (Article 15).

Is the exam available in English, and what does this bank cover?

No. Both exams are held in Spanish. This bank is an independent English-language MCQ study adaptation, not an official translation or format simulation. It keeps the Spanish legal terms and reviews the rules behind the drafting and oral tests.
