P.R. Laws tit. 4, § 927
The Director of the Notarial Inspection Office is hereby empowered to issue under his signature and seal, at the request of any person and upon the payment of three dollars ($3), certificates in connection with the contents of the entries and actions that appear in said “Register of Powers”, and said officer is likewise empowered to issue “certificates of negation” upon the payment of three dollars ($3). Once the “Register of Powers” is integrated to the General Register of Notarial Competence created by §§ 2155—2166 of this title, known as the “Non-Contentious Notarial Matters Act”, the payment of fees for certificates of affirmation or negation of powers shall be five dollars ($5) as provided in the referred statute.
The payment of fees shall be made through internal revenue stamps, which shall be cancelled on the certification itself, or by any other means as determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in coordination with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court or the person upon whom he/she delegates. The requirements of form and the mechanisms for issuing the referred certificate shall be those established by the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico through regulations.
