Property Handover POA

A Property Handover POA in the UAE is a Special Power of Attorney that grants a designated person known as the Attorney-in-Fact the legal authority to attend the handover, carry out the snagging inspection, identify and raise any defects, and sign all acceptance documents on the principal’s behalf.

The authorized agent is also empowered to collect the keys, access cards, and ownership documents directly from the developer, as well as coordinate with relevant authorities, including RERA and the Dubai Land Department, whenever required.

When properly notarized or attested, this POA is legally recognized and enforceable across all UAE emirates, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah.
