Update on Power of Attorney Submissions

Jan 09, 2017

There is a waiting period before your power of attorney (PoA) can be processed and returned to you. We are working on: 

  • EPOAR submissions: received on 25 October 2016,11 week waiting period
  • Manual submissions: received around 22 August 2016, 20 week waiting period 

To request an expedited registration of a PoA “on cause shown” please email POA-INV@scotcourts.gov.uk inbox. This measure will allow the service to be managed appropriately and help ensure that the process is being used in cases of true urgency.
