What Is a Power of Attorney (POA) in Iran?

A Power of Attorney is a legal document that gives another person (your “agent” or “wakil”) the right to act on your behalf. It can be general or limited in scope and is commonly used for:

  • Selling or managing property in Iran

  • Handling bank accounts or inheritance matters

  • Representing you in court or government offices

  • Personal or business matters when you're outside Iran

Key Elements of a Valid POA in Iran

Scope of Authority

Clearly define what powers you're giving: property, legal, financial, or family-related. You can keep it broad or limit it to specific actions.

Duration

You can choose between a fixed-term POA or an open-ended one. Some POAs only become effective after certain events (e.g., illness or travel).

Restrictions

Add specific limits to protect your interests — such as requiring dual signature for large transactions or limiting use after a certain date.

Choosing Your Agent

Select someone reliable and familiar with Iranian procedures. This could be a relative, friend, or attorney in Iran.

Signature & Notarization

To be valid in Iran, your POA must be:

  • Signed and notarized abroad

  • Registered and submitted via the Mikhak website

  • Approved by the Iranian Interests Section or consulate
