Document background
An Authorization Letter For Change Name is a crucial document used in Denmark when an individual needs to delegate the authority to handle their name change process to another person. This document is particularly relevant when the authorizer cannot personally attend to the name change procedures due to various circumstances such as being abroad, physical inability, or other practical constraints. The letter must comply with Danish legislation, particularly the Names Act (Navneloven) and the Public Administration Act, and typically includes the authorizer's current and proposed names, personal identification details, and the scope of authority being granted. The document serves as official evidence of delegation of authority and is recognized by Danish municipal authorities, the Civil Registration Office (CPR), and other relevant government bodies involved in the name change process.
