Document background
The Power of Attorney Authorization Letter is a crucial legal instrument in Singapore that facilitates the delegation of authority from one party to another. This document is commonly used when individuals need someone to manage their affairs, whether due to travel, illness, or business requirements. Under Singapore law, the document must clearly specify the scope of powers granted, comply with statutory requirements including proper execution and witnessing, and may require registration depending on its nature. The Power of Attorney Authorization Letter can be either general (covering broad authority) or specific (limited to particular transactions or time periods), and must be executed while the donor has full mental capacity.
