We address unitary local (UL) invariance of bipartite pure states. Given a bipartite state ∣Ψ>>=∑ijψij∣i>1⊗∣j>2 the complete characterization of the class of local unitaries U1⊗U2 for which U1⊗U2∣Ψ>>=∣Ψ>> is obtained.The two relevant parameters are the rank of the matrix Ψ, [Ψ]ij=ψij, and the number of its equal singular values, {\em i.e.} the degeneracy of the eigenvalues of the partial traces of ∣Ψ>>.
