Bustamante Code

The Bustamante Code (also known in Spanish as Código de Derecho Internacional Privado) is a treaty intended to establish common rules for Private International Law in the Americas. The common ideas of the treaty were developed by Antonio Sánchez de Bustamante y Sirven and solidified during the 6th Pan American Congress held in Cuba in 1928 with the Treaty of Havana being attached as an Annex to the Bustamante Code.
