It is often necessary to instruct a relative or friend to receive money or documents for you. If we are talking about the commission of a legal action, as well as about interaction with official organizations and persons, then a simple receipt will not be enough. To do this, you need to issue a power of attorney to perform these actions on your behalf.
Instructions
Step 1
A power of attorney for the transfer of documents to a proxy is drawn up by a notary, certified by his signature and seal. When the power of attorney is already in hand, the authorized person only has to perform the required action, for example, obtaining documents. As a rule, a power of attorney may contain a list of documents that the authorized person must receive.
Step 2
Before the transfer of documents, their holder must necessarily check all the necessary data and make sure their authenticity. The trustee is obliged to provide his passport and power of attorney, on the basis of which he intends to receive documents.
Step 3
The holder must check the validity of the power of attorney. Please note: he has the right to make a copy of it. In addition, it is recommended to make sure that the power of attorney is signed by the person who has expressed a desire to entrust the right to receive documents to a trusted person. Accordingly, the holder must check the passport details of the authorized person to make sure that this particular person who presented the power of attorney is the one in whose name the power of attorney was issued.
Step 4
The holder of the documents has the right not to transfer them until the trustee submits all the necessary documents confirming the right to receive them.
Step 5
The trustee, in turn, must make sure that exactly those documents are transferred to him, the list of which is provided for in the power of attorney. The number of documents to be transferred must also be specified.
Step 6
If everything is in order, the trustee puts his signature on the act or form on the transfer of documents, indicating the necessary data of the trustee. The holder also signs this document. As a rule, there should be two such forms, one of which remains with the holder, the other is handed over to the recipient.
