Power of Attorney

The person who gives power of attorney must be legally capable of doing so; i.e. they must be of sound mind and of legal age (over 18 years old). Those who wish to give power of attorney must do so in person, before the Consular employee, providing at the same time documents which establish their identity beyond any doubt, (name, surname,place anddate of birth, name of father and mother).

The full name (father's and mother's included) of the proxy (the person to whom the power of attorney is being given) shall also be provided at the time that any certificate of power of attorney is to be drawn up and signed.

If the person who signs the power of attorney does not know Greek, then an interpreter is required. The interpreter will translate the document for the benefit of the person giving the power of attorney and sign as the interpreter

Necessary documents:

1) Application form duly completed with the exact particulars of the assignee, including name, surname, father’s name, mother’s name, occupation, address and, if possible, Greek ID number with date and place of issue and exact specifications of the power of attorney (buying, selling, making or receiving payments, etc.).
2) Valid passport or, for applicants born in Greece, a Greek identity card or registration in a municipality.
3) The appropriate draft text from a notary public or a lawyer in Greece should be submitted to the Embassy in electronic format (.doc)by e-mail.
