Notary for Power of Attorney

Posted on 7th July 2025

If you need to use a Power of Attorney abroad, it must be notarised by a notary public and then apostilled by the FCDO. The notary will verify your identity – usually by inspecting your passport – and witness your signature by singing the document and attaching an official stamp and red seal. After notarisation, the document is submitted for apostille legalisation, ensuring it’s recognised by foreign authorities. This process is crucial for anyone managing property, finances, or legal affairs internationally, and can be arranged through notary offices or mobile services in London and throughout England.
