A property sale power of attorney Dubai owners use is a notarised document that lets a person you trust sell your property for you when you cannot be there. We draft your POA in Arabic and English, our in-house notary public notarises it, and we hand it to you, in person, online or at home.
WhatsApp +971 52 947 5935 with the property details.
If you want the wider picture first, read our page on power of attorney for property in Dubai. If you are the seller and want someone to complete a sale for you, the points below apply.
At a Glance
The owner signs before our in-house notary public.
The POA should name the agent, the property and the sale, not a vague list of powers.
Our price starts from AED 1,500. Government fees are paid on top, at cost.
Service is available 24/7: appointments, home visits, online sessions and WhatsApp.
Online notarisation may be possible; we tell you if your case fits.
What a Property Sale Power of Attorney Dubai Must Say
A sale deserves a precise document. Under Federal Decree-Law No. 25 of 2025, general and special agency are covered in Articles 869 to 871. A special power of attorney names the act the agent may do. For a sale, we write in:
What a Property Sale Power of Attorney Dubai Must Say
- The full name and passport details of the owner and of the agent
- The property: title deed number or the details you give us, community and unit
- The act: to sell the property, sign the sale documents and receive the price, if you want that
- Any limit, such as a minimum price or a named buyer
- The term, because there is no general legal validity period for a power of attorney; the term is whatever the document says
Never sign a blank or half-filled POA. If a limit matters to you, say so before we draft.
Property Sale Power of Attorney Dubai: Documents Required
Bring or send us:

- The agent's passport and Emirates ID, or passport only if the agent is abroad
- The title deed or property details
- The terms you want, such as price limit, buyer name or end date
If any document is not in Arabic or English, a legal translator registered with the UAE Ministry of Justice prepares the translation. Our legal translation starts from AED 50 per page.

At home:
we come to you. Ask us for a quote.
Owners abroad can read our guide to a power of attorney from abroad for use in the UAE. The UAE is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so a POA signed abroad is attested in the issuing country, including the UAE embassy there, then by MOFAIC in the UAE.
