Contents

Introduction

The Uruguayan Constitution provides in its article 85 section 13th that "ruling public honors due to great services" is a matter of competence of the General Assembly. [1]

To members of the National Army, in matters of decoration usage, the basic rule is the Army's Regulation on Uniforms. Regarding decorations and badges granted by foreign governments or institutions, or by international organizations, to military officers or troops, the grantee must ask for permission from the Executive branch through the chain of command, unless the decorated individual received it through a national authority or with their knowledge, or on the occasion of an official mission approved by the Executive. [2]

Once it was authorized, its use will become mandatory, and the military officers or troops will use it in their full dress uniform and any other uniforms, for ceremonies and parades. The bar of the decoration is used in the social and walk uniforms, but the decoration is not placed if it does not include a bar, unless the decorated individual is located in the country the decoration is from or in ceremonies organized by that country. [2]

Regarding national decorations, they shall be used in the full dress uniform. The bar version is used in the case of social and walk uniforms. The usage of these decorations is mandatory and one is not required to ask for permission to use them, just to leave a notice through the chain of command. [2]
