A power of attorney only works if the person reading it understands exactly what it allows. We translate foreign powers of attorney into English for Irish banks, solicitors and property transactions, and Irish powers of attorney into Polish, Spanish, Portuguese and 100+ other languages for use abroad. Every granted power, limit and notarial detail is rendered word for word. €29.95 per page, with most short POAs delivered in 24 hours.
No account required. No commitment. Exact price in seconds.
Send a photo, scan or PDF of your power of attorney through our secure portal. We count the words and show you the exact price in euro straight away.
A professional translator completes your translation, and we attach a signed Certificate of Accuracy with our full contact details, company stamp and reference number.
Your certified translation arrives by email as a PDF, ready to submit. A hard copy by tracked post or an apostille can be added at checkout. 12-hour expedited service on request.
No add-ons hidden in the small print. Everything below is standard.
Worded to mirror the format Irish bodies publish: a statement that it is a true translation of the original, the date, the translator’s name and signature, and our address, phone and email.
The principal and attorney with their ID numbers and addresses, every power granted and any limits on it, the start and end dates, substitution and revocation clauses, the governing law, the place and date of signing, witnesses, and the full notarial block, including the notary’s name, repertory number, stamps and any apostille attached.
A native speaker with experience in your exact document type, never machine translation. The same translator across all your documents on request.
Every certificate carries our company stamp and a unique reference number, which several Irish registration bodies and the Foreign Births Register ask to see.
Emailed as a PDF on completion. Where the receiving body wants paper, add a hard copy sent by tracked post at checkout.
Free revisions until you are happy. If a receiving body rejects the translation, we revise it free or refund you in full.
€29.95 per page (300 source words). A special power for one bank account or one property sale usually fits on one or two pages; a general notarial POA runs longer. If an Irish power of attorney is going abroad, we can arrange an apostille on our translation for €149.95 digital or €199.95 with a hard copy by tracked post.
A foreign-language power of attorney has no practical effect in Ireland until the bank, solicitor or office relying on it can read it. These are the places our clients most often need one.
Before an attorney can operate an account, close it or sign for a loan on someone’s behalf, the bank has to read the authority in English and check it covers that exact act.
Buying or selling Irish property for an owner living abroad: the solicitor needs to confirm the foreign POA expressly covers selling, buying or mortgaging before closing.
Since 26 April 2023, Irish enduring powers of attorney are registered with the Decision Support Service. Families often need the Irish EPA or its supporting papers translated for relatives abroad.
An Irish resident selling a flat in Poland or a villa in Spain usually signs a POA here. We translate it into the language the foreign notary or land registry works in.
Attorneys dealing with tax affairs, foreign pension funds or social security offices on behalf of the donor need the authority readable by whoever holds the account.
Where an attorney acts for a party in Irish proceedings, court rules call for a translator’s affidavit with the translation. Your solicitor can advise how the affidavit should be handled.
Same €29.95 per page whatever the language. These are the languages we see most often from clients in Ireland.
In most civil-law countries a power of attorney is a notarial deed, not a signed form, and the notary’s formulas carry legal weight. A loose translation of one clause is enough for a bank to refuse it.
Drawn up by a notariusz with a Repertorium A number. Polish POAs often distinguish pełnomocnictwo ogólne, rodzajowe and szczególne (general, generic and special); we keep that distinction because it defines what the attorney may do.
A poder notarial recorded in the notary’s protocolo, often for buying, selling or managing Spanish property. We translate the facultades clause by clause and keep the protocol number, notary and copia autorizada details.
Authenticated by a notar public with an încheiere de autentificare. Romanian POAs for property usually list the plot’s carte funciară number; we reproduce registry numbers exactly so the Irish solicitor can match them.
Lavrada em cartório in a livro and folha, with poderes especiais spelled out. We keep the cartório seal details, the livro and folha numbers and any QR-code verification line.
A notarised įgaliojimas registered in the Lithuanian register of powers of attorney, with a register number. We keep that number and the validity date, which Irish banks check first.
A notarised довіреність on special security paper with its own series and number, often valid for a fixed term. We transliterate names consistently with the passport and keep the form’s series and number.
We translate powers of attorney into English and from English into the language of the country where they will be used. General, special or enduring, the same process applies: a professional translator renders every power precisely, a second check confirms names, numbers and dates, and you receive a signed, stamped certified translation.
