However, this right is limited by three constraints:
- The archives must be classified and identified.
- The copy must not endanger the conservation of the original document. In particular, many bound documents (civil status registers and notaries' minutes, tabellion registers) are for the most part too fragile to be copied.
- Copying entire files is not permitted.
