          Abstract

          Abstract The main task of the Mexican notary is to provide, at the request of individuals, certainty and security to legal acts and facts through the exercise of public trust, which is characterized by the specialization of its function and the expertise required to perform the activity. However, in modern times, its obligations have been expanded to include assisting national and international authorities in the fight against the crime of money laundering and its provenance, such as drug trafficking, extortion, theft, corruption, embezzlement, tax and investment fraud, terrorism and its financing, among others. Therefore, the main objective of this note is to analyze the mandatory burden on notaries within the national legal framework, which has been established in accordance with globally imposed demands to combat the perpetration of such illegal behaviors. Similarly, the possible penalties that may apply in the event of non -compliance with the applicable provisions shall be examined from a critical and theoretical perspective. The research problem is addressed from a dogmatic and formalist methodology consistent with the subject of study, providing an explanation based on the factual, regulatory, and axiological dimensions.

          Resumen La principal labor del notariado mexicano es brindar a solicitud de los particulares, certeza y seguridad jurídica a los hechos y actos jurídicos por medio del ejercicio de la fe pública, la cual se caracteriza por la especialidad de su función y por la pericia requerida para el desarrollo de la actividad. Sin embargo, en épocas actuales, se advierte la ampliación de sus obligaciones esenciales con la finalidad de auxiliar a las autoridades nacionales e internacionales en el combate contra el delito de lavado de dinero y sus precedentes, tales como el tráfico de drogas, extorsión, robo, corrupción, malversación de fondos, fraude fiscal y de inversión, terrorismo y su financiamiento, entre otros. Es por ello por lo que el principal objetivo de la presente nota es analizar la carga obligacional establecida a los notarios dentro del marco jurídico nacional, la cual se ha determinado en concordancia con las exigencias que a nivel global han sido impuestas para luchar contra la comisión de dichas conductas ilícitas. Asimismo, se examinarán las posibles sanciones a las que pueden ser acreedores en caso de inobservancia de las disposiciones aplicables desde una perspectiva crítica y con fundamento teórico. El problema de investigación se aborda desde una metodología dogmático-formalista coherente con el objeto de estudio, realizando una explicación a partir de las dimensiones fácticas, normativas y axiológicas.
