Spanish term or phrase: darle el efecto de registro para que quede escrito
Les agradecería la ayuda con esta frase ya que no me queda del todo clara la oración a partir de ahí. Se trata de unas capitulaciones matrimoniales que constan de 10 puntos y la última oración dice:

La nueva sociedad conyugal acude a declarar.....
Este acuerdo de capitulaciones rige a partir de la fecha, para efectos legales se pondrá en vigencia solamente para los comparecientes que decidieron darle efecto de registro para que quede escrito autenticando sus firmas al respecto.
Los comparecientes están de acuerdo y firman....

English translation:accord it the effects of registration for which purpose...
Explanation:
In other words,

....for legal purposes it will come into force solely for those appearing who decide to accord it the effects of registration for which purpose it is in writing with authentication of their signatures.

So it will apply from the date of signature as between the parties but in order to take effect as against third parties a party wishing to rely on it must register it, and to do so it is in writing with authenticated signatures.


That's my tentative reading.

What often happens with many agreements is that bind the parties but not third parties unless registered and this may well be the case here. It doesn't really affect the answer though but it would be interesting if anybody actually knows about capitulaciones in what is presumably Colombia.
