Recently, our team was asked a question: “Will the Power of Attorney prepared by your legal service be accepted by the Ukrainian Consulate without additional certification or changes?”

We wanna share the answer from our specialists:

17.11.2025 23:15:07 Законодавство України встановлює, що для подання довіреності до українського консульства, цей документ повинен відповідати вимогам українського законодавства щодо форми й засвідчення. Зокрема, довіреність, складена за межами України, має бути нотаріально посвідчена, а також, у більшості випадків, апостильована або легалізована. Після цього вона перекладається українською мовою та засвідчується в консульстві. Прийняття довіреності без додаткової сертифікації або змін залежить від того, чи підготовлено її у суворій відповідності до вимог консульства та законів України. Рекомендується звернутися безпосередньо до Українського консульства у Манчестері для уточнення індивідуальних вимог щодо вашого документа.

17.11.2025 23:15:18 From a legal perspective, the acceptance of a Power of Attorney by the Ukrainian Consulate in Manchester depends on several factors, including the document's content, purpose, and compliance with Ukrainian legal requirements. Generally, Powers of Attorney prepared in the UK for use in Ukraine or with Ukrainian authorities often require notarization by a qualified UK notary public and an apostille from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) to be recognized internationally under the Hague Apostille Convention, as both the UK and Ukraine are signatories. Without these, the consulate may not accept it without additional certification or changes. However, I am an AI language model and do not provide legal services or prepare documents. For accurate advice tailored to your situation, consult a qualified legal professional familiar with Ukrainian and UK law.

18.11.2025 12:05:02 If your Power of Attorney is prepared by an external legal service, the Ukrainian Consulate in Manchester may accept it for notarisation only if the document fully complies with the formal requirements set by Ukrainian legislation. The Consulate does not automatically approve drafts produced by private lawyers or agencies. The text must be in Ukrainian, contain accurate personal details for both parties, clearly describe the delegated powers, and meet all statutory formatting standards. If the consular officer finds inconsistencies, missing data or wording that does not meet Ukrainian notarial rules, they may require corrections before certifying your signature. Therefore, even professionally drafted documents may still need revisions to align with consular norms, and acceptance is determined solely at the discretion of the consular notary at the appointment.

18.11.2025 12:09:19 A Power of Attorney drafted by your legal representative can be notarised by the Ukrainian Consulate only if the wording and structure fully meet Ukrainian legal requirements. The Consulate does not guarantee automatic acceptance of any externally prepared document, regardless of who drafted it. The text must be in proper Ukrainian, include precise identification details, clearly defined powers, references to property or cases where relevant, and follow notarial standards used in Ukraine. During the appointment, the consular officer reviews the document for compliance. If any elements are incomplete or legally insufficient, you may be asked to correct or reissue the draft before signature certification. In practice, well-prepared drafts are often accepted, but final approval always rests with the consular notary.
