Notarial power of attorney and legalisation costs

After placing your order, you receive a power of attorney that you can easily have legalised by an online notary designated by us, with step-by-step instructions. The entire process takes 5 minutes, is completely digital and can be done from your phone or tablet.

For a fixed fee of €125, the notary takes care of the legalisation and sends the power of attorney to us by registered mail; we usually receive it within 1 to 2 days.
