Powers of Attorney
- When the interested person come to the Consular Office to request the issuance of a power of attorney, the Consul must inquire with the applicant about the scope of the acts he wants to mandate, so that in this way it can be clearly identified what kind of power of attorney is to be granted, either a general power of attorney or a special power of attorney.
- For greater security of the interested person, this must be done in coordination with his/her lawyer/notary in Uruguay sending the draft of the power of attorney to be signed in Word format to: uruarabia@mrree.gub.uy
- Once we have received the document, we will coordinate an appointment in the Consulate to be able to proceed with the signing of the document.
- The cost is of SAR 1012.50, payable by bank transfer payable to "Embassy of Uruguay Consular Section", cash is not accepted. The procedure at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is of approximately $8.00.
- Lastly, the certification of the Consul’s signature must be done at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and protocolize by public notary in Uruguay.
Note: Consular fees payment must be made on the day of the appointment by bank transfer or deposit to the Embassy's bank account.
