What changed
Navarre has passed a new Regional Archives, Document Management and Documentary Heritage Law, replacing the previous 2007 law. The new legislation consolidates rules previously scattered across multiple laws, places electronic document management at its core, and strengthens citizens' rights to access Navarre's documentary heritage.
Who is affected
It primarily affects Navarrese public administrations, local entities, and both public and private archives operating in the region. Members of the public benefit too, as the law reinforces their right to consult public and heritage documents, including through a new online Archives Portal.
What to look out for
→ If you work with document management, public or private archives, or documentary heritage in Navarre, it is worth reviewing the full text of this law to understand the new rights and obligations that may apply to you. Official information is available through the Parliament of Navarre and the Official Gazette of Navarre (BON).
