Step by Step Australian POA Legalization Process:

1. Notarization – To begin, it is important to notarize your Power of Attorney. We have a trusted notary partner located in Canberra who can assist you with this process. If you reside in a different city within Australia, you can have your POA notarized by any Australian notary public near you. Once notarized, you can safely send the document via courier to our Canberra office, where we can proceed to Step 2. Please ensure that the notary public’s signature, seal, or stamp is clearly visible on the document.
2. Authentication by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) – This is the part of the legalization process where it confirms the signature of the public official who conducted the notarization. It confirms the authenticity of the signature, seal, or stamp on the public document. Authentication Certificate will be attached along with a seal and a stamp.
3. The UAE Embassy in Canberra, Australia offers legalization services to ensure that your documents are correctly authenticated according to the standard procedure. Once verified, an official sticker from the UAE Embassy-Canberra Consular Section will be affixed, confirming the legality of your documents.
4. Attestation by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) UAE – As the last and final step, this is where the document is fully & completely verified. Another UAE official sticker will be placed. Once done POA is ready & legal to use.
5. If your power of attorney (POA) is intended for use in court, it may be necessary to have it attested by the Ministry of Justice (MOJ) in the UAE. Additionally, an Arabic translation and attestation by the Ministry of Justice would be required.
