Selling property in Dubai while living abroad can seem like a logistical challenge — but not anymore. With Remote Notarization for Real Estate Power of Attorney (POA), property owners can now authorize trusted representatives to handle sales, transfers, and registrations without setting foot in the UAE.
At Al-Hamd Legal Translation, we simplify the entire process — from drafting and translating POAs to remote notarization and legalization, ensuring every step complies with UAE legal standards.
What Is Remote Notarization for Real Estate POAs?
Remote notarization allows property owners to digitally notarize a Power of Attorney (POA) from outside the UAE through an approved online platform. It’s a secure, legally recognized process that eliminates the need for physical presence before a Dubai notary public.
In simple terms — you can authorize someone to sell, rent, or manage your Dubai property from anywhere in the world.
Key Benefits:
Legally valid and recognized by UAE authorities
Fast, convenient, and secure digital process
Ideal for expats and international investors
Saves time and travel costs
Compatible with property transactions in major free zones and mainland Dubai
Why Real Estate POA Translation Is Crucial
Before your Power of Attorney can be notarized, it must be accurately translated into Arabic — the official language of UAE courts and legal entities.
Even minor translation errors can lead to rejection by the notary public or delays in property transfer. That’s where Al-Hamd Legal Translation comes in.
Our certified translators ensure your POA:
Matches UAE Ministry of Justice and Dubai Land Department requirements
Is sworn, stamped, and certified
Is ready for remote notarization and subsequent attestation

Step-by-Step: How to Sell Property in Dubai Remotely
Here’s how you can sell your Dubai property from abroad through a properly translated and notarized POA:
Step 1: Draft and Translate the POA
Create a Power of Attorney granting authority to your representative to handle property-related transactions.
➡ Al-Hamd Legal Translation provides accurate English-to-Arabic legal translation ready for notarization.
Step 2: Remote Notarization via UAE Notary Platform
You’ll attend a video conference with a UAE notary who verifies your identity and confirms the POA’s authenticity.
Step 3: Attestation and MOFA Authentication
Once notarized, your POA must be attested by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) and possibly your home country’s embassy.
Step 4: Property Transfer Execution
Your authorized agent can now complete the sale, registration, or handover on your behalf through Dubai Land Department.
