Overview

What is Power of Attorney?

A Power of Attorney allows someone you trust to act on your behalf, but only when the document is prepared correctly and accepted by the organization receiving it. For international matters, the process often involves notarization, certified translation, apostille, or consular legalization before the document can be used overseas.

For more than 18 years, MY-VIET, INC. has helped individuals and families coordinate Power of Attorney documents for both the United States and Vietnam. We guide you through each step, prepare the required paperwork, and coordinate the additional services needed for international acceptance, helping you move forward with confidence.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Power of Attorney?

A Power of Attorney is a legal document that authorizes another person to act on your behalf for specific financial, property, business, or personal matters. It may be general or limited, depending on the authority you choose to grant.

For complex legal situations, consulting a licensed attorney is recommended. MY-VIET, INC. coordinates document preparation and related services but does not provide legal advice regarding the legal effect or scope of a Power of Attorney.

In many cases, yes. Depending on the purpose, the document may require notarization, certified Vietnamese translation, and apostille or consular legalization before it will be accepted by Vietnamese authorities. We help coordinate each of these steps.

The validity depends on the type of Power of Attorney and the laws of the state or country where it will be used. Some remain effective until revoked, while others expire after a specific event or period.
