Power of Attorney through the consulate - online preparation

To conduct a real estate transaction from abroad, resolve housing and utilities issues, or build a house, a Power of Attorney will be required. This document will authorize a person in Russia to handle these matters on your behalf.

To arrange a Power of Attorney, it's not necessary to return to Russia: the document can be obtained at the nearest Russian consulate. However, consulate staff do not draft documents; they only certify prepared draft documents in a special format.

We will assist you in preparing a draft of the Power of Attorney, provide consultation regarding scheduling an appointment at the consulate, or schedule an appointment for you. Additionally, we will upload the finalized draft document in the required format to the consulate portal.

It is no longer necessary to submit the original Power of Attorney, an electronic form is sufficient - use the "Certification of Equivalence of Electronic Documents" service

What documents will be required?

The basic set of documents depends on the legal status of the principal (on whose behalf the Power of Attorney is being issued):

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I arrange a Power of Attorney without my personal presence?
No, the principal's personal presence is mandatory.

What should I do if the person for whom the Power of Attorney is being arranged is in Russia?
Nothing to worry about, the presence of the attorney to issue the Power of Attorney is not required. It is sufficient to provide their passport details and registration information.

Do I need to bring my child to the consulate appointment if the Power of Attorney is being arranged on their behalf?
It depends on the age of the child. The presence of children under 14 years of age is not required. Children aged 14 to 18 arrange Powers of Attorney in their own name, but with the consent of one of the parents, so the presence of both the child and the parent is mandatory.

Which passport do I need to present to arrange a notarized document?
Priority is given to the internal passport. If the internal passport has not been issued or has expired, a valid foreign passport will be required. If both passports are available, both passports must be taken to the consulate appointment.

Yes, of course, it is possible.
