When is this simple power of attorney enough?
For everyday matters such as dealing with authorities, collecting parcels or documents, or re-registering a car, a simple written power of attorney is usually sufficient. The authorized person should carry the document and their ID.
When do I need more than this template?
Banks, insurers and land registries usually require their own forms or a notarized power of attorney. Healthcare directives and lasting powers of attorney follow special official forms – this template is not meant for those.
Can I revoke it?
Yes, at any time. The simplest way is to revoke it in writing towards the authorized person and take back the original. You can also limit the validity to a fixed period right in the template.
Is the digital signature valid?
Tamgara creates a simple electronic signature under eIDAS. Many offices accept a printed, digitally signed power of attorney – if in doubt, ask the office in question or print the PDF and sign it by hand as well.
