Document background
The Receiving Authorization Letter is a crucial legal instrument under Dutch law used to formally delegate authority from one party to another. This document type is essential when an individual or organization needs to authorize another party to act on their behalf, whether for specific transactions, temporary periods, or ongoing matters. The document must comply with the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek) requirements regarding representation and mandate, particularly Book 3, Title 3 provisions. It typically includes detailed information about both parties, specific powers granted, duration of authority, and any limitations or conditions. The authorization can be used for various purposes, from financial transactions to legal representations, and may require notarization depending on its intended use. The document serves as legal evidence of the authorized party's power to act and protects all parties involved by clearly defining the scope of authorization.
