Summary: This paper attemps to establish similaritys and differences between advisory opinions under the Mercosur rules and the preliminary rulings of the European Union law. With this aim we make an explanation about the nature and mechanism of both concepts, and then we analyze them comparatively, using regulatory standars, doctrine and jurisprudence link to the topic. In conclusion we express that the legal nature of the advisory opinions in Mercosur is different from the preliminary rulings in the European Union: they differ in their compulsory and binding nature for the judges who have asked it. However, both are similar in their objetives: ensuring the unity of law and the uniformity in their interpretation and application.
