If you have properties, bank accounts, or any particular connection with Italy, you may be required to travel to Italy to carry out specific tasks in person, such as applying for or extinguishing a mortgage, dealing with probate, or selling a property. However, what happens if you cannot travel to Italy in person? In these circumstances, you may wish to appoint one or more individuals to deal with those tasks on your behalf by way of a Power of Attorney (Procura).
Within the United Kingdom, a Power of Attorney (Procura) must be signed by an individual before a Notary Public. Furthermore, to be valid in Italy, a notarised Procura must then be apostilled in order to certifiy that a foreign authority has the power to sign a public document. This ensures that the document can be legally valid and used outside the country of issue.
We are able to provide reliable, notarially certified translations and notarial documents in Italian, and assist further with obtaining FCDO Apostille.

Power of Attorney • Procura • FCDO Apostille
If you have properties, bank accounts, or any particular connection with Italy, you may be required to travel there to carry out specific tasks in person, such as applying for or extinguishing a mortgage, dealing with probate, or selling a property. However, what happens if you cannot or do not want to go to Italy in person? In these circumstances, you may wish to appoint one or more individuals to deal with those tasks on your behalf by way of a Power of Attorney, in Italian a procura. If you are resident or temporarily located in the UK, you can appoint an Italian lawyer in the UK, or contact the Italian Consulate, who can prepare a Power of Attorney for you in compliance with the formalities necessary to make it valid in Italy. An English Lasting Power of Attorney or Enduring Power of Attorney may not be accepted in Italy (despite its notarisation and legalisation), so a Court Order may therefore be necessary to enforce it.
