Special POA

Special Power of Attorney (POA) in the UAE

A Special Power of Attorney (POA) in the UAE is a legal document that grants a designated person (the “agent” or “attorney-in-fact”) the authority to act on behalf of the principal in specific matters or transactions. Unlike a General POA, which grants broad powers, a Special POA is limited to particular tasks, ensuring that the agent’s authority is restricted to the matters outlined in the document.

Key Features of a Special POA

  • Specific Authority

    A Special POA clearly defines the specific actions the agent is authorized to undertake. This could include tasks such as signing contracts, handling real estate transactions, managing bank accounts, or representing the principal in legal matters.

  • Legal Validity

    To be legally binding, a Special POA must be notarized by a UAE Notary Public. This process involves the principal appearing before the notary to confirm their identity and intention to grant the POA.

  • Time-Bound or Event-Specific

    A Special POA can be time-bound, meaning it is only valid for a specific period, or it can be event-specific, becoming effective only upon the occurrence of a certain event or condition.

  • Revocation

    The principal has the right to revoke a Special POA at any time, provided the revocation is communicated to the agent and any third parties who may rely on the POA.

Process for Creating and Notarizing a Power of Attorney (POA) in UAE

Typing of POA

  • Consult with the client to understand their specific needs and requirements for the POA.
  • Draft the POA document, ensuring it includes all necessary details as specified by the client, such as the scope of authority, duration, and any specific instructions.

Submission and Verification of Document

  • Submit the drafted POA document to the relevant authorities or typing centers approved by the UAE government for verification.
  • The document is reviewed to ensure it complies with UAE laws and regulations.
  • Make any necessary corrections or adjustments as advised by the authorities.

Schedule Signing

  • Contact the Notary Public’s office to schedule an appointment for the signing of the POA.
  • Ensure that all parties involved are informed of the scheduled date and time.
  • Gather all required identification and supporting documents needed for the appointment.

Signing of Document in Front of Notary Officer

  • Attend the scheduled appointment at the Notary Public’s office or online.
  • Present the POA document and required identification (such as passports or Emirates IDs) to the Notary Officer.
  • The Notary Officer will verify the identities of the parties involved and ensure that they understand and agree to the contents of the POA.
  • All parties involved must sign the POA document in the presence of the Notary Officer.

Payment and Receiving Final Document

  • Pay the applicable notary fees for the notarization of the POA document.
  • Upon successful payment and completion of the signing process, receive the notarized POA document from the Notary Public.
  • Ensure that the notarized POA is stored securely and that copies are provided to relevant parties as necessary.
