Let ${\mathcal K}<{\mathcal L}$ be a finite Galois extension and let $X$ be an algebraic variety defined over ${\mathcal L}$. Weil's Galois descent theorem provides sufficient conditions for $X$ to be definable over ${\mathcal K}$, that is, the existence of a Galois decent datum for $X$ asserts the existence of an algebraic variety $Y$, defined over ${\mathcal K}$, and a birational isomorphism $R:X \to Y$, defined ver ${\mathcal L}$. Unfortunately, Weil's original proof does not provides a method to compute $R$ nor $Y$ explicitly. The aim of this paper is to provide a constructive proof, that is, once explicit equations are given for $X$ and a Galois descent datum for $X$, one produces such an explicit birational isomorphism $R$.
