ANMAT translation, built for Argentine regulatory practice.
What Argentina's ANMAT expects from Spanish clinical trial and registration documentation under Disposición 6677 — and how an Amavita pilot delivers a first-cycle-ready package.
What this covers
ANMAT in three moving parts.
What must be in Argentine Spanish
Protocol, informed consent, investigator's brochure, safety narratives, and product information — using Argentine medical terminology and voseo-aware patient-facing language where appropriate.
Traductor público and legalization
Legal instruments require a traductor público matriculado registered with the Colegio de Traductores Públicos and legalized by the corresponding Colegio; apostille rules apply to foreign-origin documents.
Where submissions stall
ICFs that read as literal English translations, terminology that drifts from Argentine usage, and missing legalizations on powers of attorney are recurring reasons for observaciones under Disposición 6677.

How ANMAT compares to the rest of the world.
ANMAT does not set its rules in isolation. Our primary-source review of preclinical translation requirements across nine LATAM regulators places Argentina on the same three-tier map used above, so you can see where ANMAT is stricter — and where it is more permissive — than its neighbours.
Outside the region the picture changes again. The companion study of preclinical translation rules at eight non-LATAM regulators, from FDA and EMA to PMDA, NMPA, MHRA, Health Canada, TGA and Swissmedic found no primary instrument requiring visual replication of a Module 4 study report, which is why the sworn-translation ceiling described on this page is a LATAM-native construct.
If you are budgeting a multi-country programme, read the three-tier framework for ANMAT preclinical translation in the LATAM regulator study before deciding what to translate for Argentina.

Frequently asked
ANMAT translation, quick answers.
What are ANMAT's translation requirements for clinical trial authorizations?
ANMAT reviews clinical trial dossiers in Spanish under Disposición 6677/10. Protocols, informed consent forms, investigator's brochures, and safety narratives must be translated into Argentine Spanish, and legal instruments must be handled by a traductor público matriculado.
When is a traductor público required in Argentina?
Legal instruments — powers of attorney, corporate authorizations, apostilled documents, and contracts filed with ANMAT — must be translated by a traductor público matriculado registered with the Colegio de Traductores Públicos and legalized by the corresponding Colegio. Protocols and investigator brochures are technical translations reviewed by qualified medical translators.
How does the Amavita pilot cover ANMAT submissions?
A pilot scopes one Argentine protocol or dossier, delivers an MD-reviewed Spanish package aligned to ANMAT expectations and Disposición 6677, and includes a pre-submission QC checklist covering terminology, ICF readability, and legalization workflow.
