What is a power of attorney?
A Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal instrument that enables an authorized individual to act on your behalf, making decisions and carrying out actions when you are unable to do so. Whether you require temporary authorization within specific parameters or comprehensive management of your business affairs in Thailand, Witsaroot L&L offers consultation and assistance in drafting the Power of Attorney tailored to your needs.
In Thailand, a valid Power of Attorney requires the signatures of both the Principal and the Attorney-in-fact, witnessed by individuals or a Notarial Services Attorney. Notarization by the Notarial Services Attorney is also possible to authenticate the signatures. Additionally, the Power of Attorney must bear the required duty stamps to be recognized as an official document for legal purposes.
