Signing Process
Once we have prepared the draft of your inheritance power of attorney, based on your location, the following process for the signing will need to be followed:
Scenario 1: Sign in UAE for use in UAE
If you reside in the UAE, a inheritance power of attorney can be signed before a Notary Public in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, Ajman or Um Al Quwain. Regardless of the place of signing within the UAE, a inheritance power of attorney remains valid throughout the UAE.
We provide end-to-end assistance on preparing and notarizing the power of attorney in the UAE.

Scenario 2: Sign outside UAE for use in UAE
If you reside outside the UAE, a inheritance power of attorney can be signed before a Notary Public in the country of your residence. Once signed, attestations by the following government departments will be required before it can be used in the UAE:

- Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the country of your residence
- UAE Embassy in the country of your residence
2. United Arab Emirates

- Ministry of Justice in the UAE after Arabic translation
Our fee for assistance on the UAE attestations is AED 899. This includes the government fee. However, if the document is treated as commercial document by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the government fee of AED 2,000 shall apply in addition.
