Issue a power of attorney for a representative to apostille documents in Ukraine

Issue a power of attorney to represent your interests during apostille in Ukraine

Living in the United Kingdom, many Ukrainians face the need to apostille documents in Ukraine. To do this without being physically present, you need to issue a power of attorney to an authorised person.

Issuing a power of attorney is the first and key step in delegating authority to a representative who will act on your behalf in Ukraine. The Consultant legal marketplace provides full preparation of the power of attorney text in accordance with the requirements of Ukrainian legislation, taking into account the purpose — apostille of documents at the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or other authorised bodies. 

We take into account the type of documents, the format of representation, the term of validity and the specifics of notarisation abroad.

Legalisation of a power of attorney for Ukraine through apostille

Since Ukraine recognises apostilles in accordance with the Hague Convention, a notarised power of attorney from the United Kingdom must be apostilled before being submitted in Ukraine. We:

• organise the procedure for apostilling the document at the FCDO;
• 
  prepare a duly certified translation of the power of attorney into Ukrainian;
• 
  if necessary, provide services for the further transfer of the document to a Ukrainian representative.

We assist with the submission of documents to the FCDO and monitor the process of obtaining an apostille so that the power of attorney is accepted by the Ukrainian authorities without additional clarifications.
