The Authorised Representative Letter (Vollmacht) is a crucial legal instrument under German law used to delegate authority from one party to another. This document is essential when an individual or organization needs to appoint someone to act on their behalf, whether for specific transactions, ongoing business operations, or regulatory compliance. The letter must comply with German Civil Code (BGB) requirements and typically includes detailed specifications of the granted powers, temporal scope, and any restrictions on the representative's authority. It's particularly important in business contexts where direct action by the principal is impractical or impossible, such as international operations, regulatory filings, or multiple simultaneous transactions. The document can be tailored to various levels of authority, from limited specific powers to general commercial representation (Prokura), and may require notarization depending on its intended use.
