Document background
The Declaration of Authorization is a crucial legal instrument in the United Arab Emirates, used when an individual or entity needs to formally delegate authority to another party. This document type is governed by UAE Federal Law No. 5 of 1985 (Civil Code) and related legislation, requiring careful drafting to ensure legal validity and enforceability. A Declaration of Authorization must specify the extent of powers granted, whether for specific transactions, general business operations, or personal matters. It's commonly used in situations ranging from simple administrative tasks to complex business dealings, and typically requires notarization to be legally valid. The document serves as evidence of authority when dealing with government entities, financial institutions, or other third parties within the UAE jurisdiction. Given the UAE's strict legal requirements, the declaration must be precise in its language and scope, often requiring preparation in both Arabic and English.
