Sumario:The occupation of registrar of chambers in Portuguese America will be analysed in this paper from the perspective of the pecuniary capital and the social prestige that it could offer to its holders. In this regard, I will highlight the actual motivations that made it appealing to those who wanted to serve the monarchy at the local level. Furthermore, it should be noted that the fiscal reforms promoted in the eighteenth century, regarding the income and pecuniary contributions of these intermediate offices, help us to understand the Portuguese monarchy as a whole.
