Marriage Power of Attorney by Guardian
A marriage power of attorney is an important legal document for conducting a marriage in the UAE. By use of this document, another person can be authorised to act on behalf of the father or legal guardian of a female to provide consent for the marriage of the female before a court in the UAE. In the event the father or the legal guardian of a female resides outside of UAE or is unable to attend the marriage ceremonies, then a marriage power of attorney must be mandatorily prepared for execution of the marriage.
Any male person who is above the age of 21 years can be appointed as an attorney in a marriage POA. Normally, a trustworthy person or a close relative is appointed as an attorney in a marriage power of attorney. Even the experts at JustPOA can act as trusted attorneys in a marriage POA.

- A face-to-face video call is organised by the Dubai notary public at a designated time. The video call is organised for the purposes of verifying the identities of the parties (principal and agent) to the marriage POA and for approving the POA.
