Document background
A Power of Attorney Confirmation Letter is commonly used in Hong Kong when third parties require formal verification of an attorney's authority to act on behalf of a principal. This document becomes necessary in various situations, such as when conducting significant financial transactions, managing property matters, or engaging in business dealings where the attorney's authority needs to be explicitly confirmed. The letter serves as a supplementary document to the original power of attorney, providing current confirmation of its validity and status. It is particularly useful in situations where the original power of attorney was granted some time ago or where third parties require recent confirmation of its continued validity. The document must comply with Hong Kong legal requirements, including the Powers of Attorney Ordinance (Cap. 31) and related regulations, and may need to be certified by a solicitor or notary public depending on its intended use.
