M/URUG. SC.

English translation: Misceláneo/Uruguay. Sin costo.

Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law (general) / Uruguay
Spanish term or phrase: M/URUG. SC.
This is a line in a stamp on certified copy of a birth certificate from Uruguayan Consulate.
The full stamp reads:

ACTUACION No. ###
ARANCEL No. ##
RECIBO No. #######
CODIGO No.
M/URUG. SC. Exonerado Art. 252 Ley 19355
M/LOCAL
FECHA ##/##/2021

(The article referenced says no charge when cert is issued by consulate.)

Any ideas as to what the M/ and SC. stand for would be much appreciated!

Thank you so much for your suggestions! I think "monto" is likely for M. I ended up using a translator's note since I couldn't find definitive evidence for either abbreviation.

agree  patinba: I think you can be confident this is the correct answer, Taña.

  -> Thank you Pat.
neutral  philgoddard: "Sin costo" is a possibility, but I'm not so sure about "misceláneo". // I think "monto" is more likely, with "Urug/local" referring to the currency.
1 hr
  -> I have worked in the Consular Section of several Embassies doing just this type of work and so, I am pretty sure of my suggestion. If it is not "Miscellaneous", it may refer to "Monto" meaning "Amount". Where is your suggestion then?
agree  Z-Translations Translator

  -> Thanks. Again, I reiterate that M. is probably "Monto" although I haven't found good sources to back that up.
