Here are answers to the most commonly asked questions about Company Formation POA.
A Company Formation POA is a legal document that authorizes someone to act on behalf of a business owner or shareholder to complete all formalities related to setting up a company in Dubai.
Foreign investors, non-resident shareholders, or business owners who cannot be physically present in the UAE often issue this POA to a trusted representative or business service provider.
The POA can grant authority to reserve a trade name, sign incorporation documents, submit license applications, lease office space, open establishment cards, and collect the trade license. It can also include post-formation tasks like applying for investor visas.
Yes, but it must clearly state this power. However, most UAE banks still require the physical presence of the ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) for compliance and KYC purposes.
No. A general POA is usually not accepted. The document must specifically outline the powers related to business setup, or it may be rejected by licensing authorities.
Yes. If issued in the UAE, it must be notarized locally. If issued abroad, it must be notarized in the home country, legalized by the UAE Embassy there, and attested by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A certified Arabic translation is also required if the original is not in Arabic.
Not always. Each jurisdiction (like DED for Mainland or specific Free Zone authorities) has its own format and content requirements. A POA for one may not be valid in another unless tailored accordingly.
Yes. The principal can revoke it anytime through a notarized revocation document. The revocation must be communicated to the appointed attorney and all relevant government departments or authorities to prevent continued use.
