How the POA Process Works

The process for preparing and notarising a POA in Dubai generally follows six key steps. The exact procedure may vary depending on the applicant, the POA type, and the relevant authority.

  1. Confirm the POA purpose
    Identify the exact action your representative must complete so the POA can be drafted with the correct scope.
  2. Review identification documents
    Ensure passports, Emirates IDs, and any supporting documents are available and valid for notarisation.
  3. Draft the POA document
    The POA is prepared according to UAE requirements and tailored to the specific transaction or authority.
  4. Arrange Arabic translation
    If the POA is in another language, an official Arabic translation may be required before notarisation.
  5. Complete identity verification
    The principal signs the POA through online verification or in-person attendance, depending on eligibility.
  6. Receive the notarised POA
    Once notarised, the POA can be used immediately for the authorised transaction or procedure.
    The exact steps depend on the applicant, the POA type, and the authority handling the transaction.
