A company management power of attorney Dubai owners can use lets a person you trust act for the company owner on the matters you list. We draft it in Arabic and English, and our in-house notary public notarises it at our Business Bay office, online or at your home.
WhatsApp +971 52 947 5935, 24/7, and tell us which powers your manager needs.
The practical catch is the wording. A general sentence gives an agent only acts of management, so anything bigger must be named in the document.
What a Company Management Power of Attorney Does
The owner or an authorised signatory is the principal. The person named is the agent. The agent can deal with the company's day to day matters, but only inside the powers written in the document.
Agency, the legal word for a power of attorney, is set out in Federal Decree-Law No. 25 of 2025, Articles 866 to 903. General and special agency are in Articles 869 to 871. A general agency covers management. A special agency names a specific act.
Powers a Company Manager Often Needs
- Sign routine letters and forms for the company.
- Deal with a bank on named accounts.
- Submit and collect papers at licensing and government counters.
- Sign contracts of a type you list.
- Receive documents on the company's behalf.
List each power in plain words. A power you leave out is a power your agent does not have.
