NOTARIAL TRANSACTION · POWER OF ATTORNEY

The power of attorney. Two variants, cleanly separated.

With a precautionary power of attorney someone determines who will act for them when they no longer can. It is notarised so that it also covers property and banking matters — and because establishing the person's identity is part of the deed.

THE PATH THROUGH THE OFFICE

Four stations. NotarFlow works where your hours go.

First meeting

NotarFlow works here

Principal, attorney, scope. Identity documents are captured; which document is mandatory depends on the variant and is recorded in the catalogue.

Draft and fee calculation

NotarFlow works here

Seventeen mandatory fields, two variants. The difference between them is not a matter of wording but a matter of fields — and therefore described in the catalogue rather than hidden in the text.

Notarial appointment

Your work

Reading out, signing, issuing. Your work.

Completion

does not apply

The catalogue records no completion for the power of attorney. What follows — the issued copy, registration, safekeeping — is a matter for the notary's office and has no step in NotarFlow.

WHAT NOTARFLOW TAKES ON

The building blocks this transaction touches.

The site is organised by transaction, the pricing by building block. Each block can be booked on its own and works on the same matter; what it costs is on the pricing page and not here.

VARIANTS OF THIS TRANSACTION

What is common — and what is the exception.

A variant is the difference you must not guess. Where the deed type catalogue has a line for it, this page says so; where it has none, it says that too.

Power of attorney by a single person

common

One principal appoints another person. The attorney is not a party to the deed and need not attend the notarisation; they are named on the principal's information and not formally identified. Evidenced in the catalogue.

Spouses, mutually

common

Two spouses appoint each other in the same deed. Both are parties, both attend, and both must be formally identified — which is why the attorney's identity document is additionally mandatory here. Evidenced in the catalogue, and the difference is in the fields.

Power of attorney by a company

rare

No line in the catalogue. An unknown variant does not silently fall back on a known one; it is reported.

STRAIGHT TALK

What deliberately stays with you

This section is on every transaction page. Every deed type moves in with your office’s templates — two are ready today, your most frequent one is set up first.

Your house template replaces the generic one

not included

The draft text behind this type is a generic template, not a house template. Once your templates are available it will be replaced, not supplemented.

The register notification stays with the notary's office

not included

Registration with the central register of precautionary documents is done by the notary's office. NotarFlow has no step for it and claims none.

The scope is discussed with the notary

not included

How far a power of attorney should reach, where limits make sense and what a care directive adds alongside it is discussed by the notary.

The approval level is granted by the notary

not included

As with the land charge: status “draft”. The fields are populated against a synthetic case and covered by tests; no notary has confirmed them.

WHERE THIS STANDS

What the catalogue says about this transaction.

From the deed type catalogue, not from the marketing.

This type and the land charge are ready for use today — every further type is set up with your templates, the most frequent first. Anyone reading on this site that NotarFlow drafts deeds should know for how many types that is true today.
