Power of Attorney Translation with Notarization

What Power of Attorney Translation Includes

Power of Attorney (PoA) translation means rendering a legal document confirming the representative's authority into another language while preserving its legal force. We translate party details, scope of authority, validity period, and revocation conditions. The translation is formatted according to the requirements of the receiving organization: embassy, court, bank, or notary.

Types of Powers of Attorney We Translate

We work with all types of powers of attorney under Russian legislation and international standards:

• General Power of Attorney — for managing all affairs of the principal
• Special Power of Attorney — for a specific range of actions
• One-time Power of Attorney — for performing a specific legal action
• Power of Attorney for Representation — in court, government agencies, before third parties
• Property Management Power of Attorney — real estate, bank accounts, securities
• Corporate Power of Attorney — on behalf of a legal entity for signing documents
• Power of Attorney to Obtain Documents — at consulates, government service centers, agencies

Translation and Certification Process

Standard process: we receive a scan of the power of attorney, translate using legal glossaries in SDL Trados, format according to the receiving organization's requirements, and certify with our in-house notary. For embassies, we format the translation to their specific requirements: text layout, details, date format, translator's signature.

Powers of attorney for use abroad undergo additional review for compliance with the target jurisdiction. Our translators understand the differences between the Russian legal system and common law (USA, UK) and continental law (Germany, France) systems.
