General Power of Attorney with Sale Rights in Ukraine — Notary Services in Kyiv

In situations where a property owner is abroad, in another city, or simply does not have the time to deal with bureaucracy, a notary comes to the rescue. Most often, clients in Kyiv ask to issue a document commonly known as a general power of attorney with the right of sale. This document allows your representative to legally manage and sell a car, apartment, or land plot on your behalf.

What does this document provide and what are the risks?

By issuing such a power of attorney, you grant the attorney-in-fact (the person you trust) the broadest possible powers. They will be able not only to collect certificates and show the property to buyers but also to sign the purchase and sale agreement and receive money for it.

The main risk is that legally, you remain the owner until the transaction is completed. You should issue a general power of attorney exclusively to trusted people (for example, close relatives) to avoid fraud.

How to issue it and what documents are needed?

The procedure at a private notary in Kyiv takes about 20–30 minutes. You (the principal) will need to be present in person with your original passport and tax identification number (TIN). The presence of the authorized person is not required — it is enough to know their exact passport details and registered address.

If the power of attorney is issued for the sale of a car, you must also provide the notary with the original vehicle registration certificate.

Validity period and cancellation

You choose the validity period of the power of attorney yourself (for example, 1 year, 3 years, or 5 years). It is important to remember: if your plans change, you have the full right to contact a notary at any time and annul (revoke) this power of attorney.
