Power of Attorney Services

Notary Public Power of Attorney

We provide professional Power of Attorney notarisation services for clients across London and nearby areas. A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows you to appoint someone you trust to act on your behalf in another country.

This may be needed for property sales, banking matters, court proceedings, company business, or other important affairs overseas.

Power of Attorney Notary Services

Many Powers of Attorney are prepared by lawyers in the country where the document will be used. You then bring the document to us for notarisation. We check your identity, witness your signature, and complete the notarial certificate. This makes the document valid for use abroad.

In most cases, the document will also need an Apostille from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). Some countries require further legalisation by their embassy or consulate. We can guide you through each step to make sure your document is accepted overseas.

We offer a fast and friendly service. With clear fees and flexible appointments. Including evenings and weekends.

Power of Attorney for Spain

If you are granting a Power of Attorney for use in Spain, it must first be notarised in the UK and then apostilled. Spain is a Hague Apostille country, which means once the Apostille is added, the document is recognised without further embassy legalisation. Our notaries have extensive experience preparing Spanish Powers of Attorney quickly and efficiently so that your Spanish lawyer can use the document without delay.

Power of Attorney for Dubai and the UAE

For Dubai and the wider United Arab Emirates, the process is stricter. A UK-signed Power of Attorney must be notarised, then legalised with an Apostille, and finally certified by the UAE Embassy in London. We take care of the notarisation and Apostille swiftly, and provide clear guidance on arranging the embassy stage. Our efficient service means you save valuable time on what can otherwise be a complicated process.

Power of Attorney for India

Powers of Attorney for India must be notarised in the UK, usually in the presence of witnesses, and then apostilled. In some cases Indian authorities also ask for embassy or consular certification. We ensure your Indian Power of Attorney is correctly notarised and ready for legalisation, giving you peace of mind that the document will be accepted for property, banking or legal matters in India.

Power of Attorney for the USA

For the United States, requirements vary by state. In some cases a notarised UK Power of Attorney is sufficient, while in other cases an Apostille is required to confirm the notary’s authority. Our notaries are experienced in preparing US Powers of Attorney, advising you whether an Apostille is needed, and arranging the entire process promptly so that your document will be recognised.

Power of Attorney for South Africa

If you are purchasing or selling property in South Africa, a Power of Attorney is almost always required. South African lawyers typically ask for a notarised and apostilled Power of Attorney, although in some cases notarisation alone may be accepted. We work quickly to notarise your South African Power of Attorney and, where needed, arrange the Apostille so that your transaction can move forward without unnecessary delay.

Powers of Attorney for Other Countries Worldwide

Different countries have different requirements for accepting UK Powers of Attorney. Many countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention will accept a notarised and apostilled document without further steps. Others may also require embassy or consular certification. We provide a fast, professional service so your documents are correctly prepared first time.
