Power of Attorney (Procuration, France)：2026 模板

Working English version. Where a French version is signed or required by law, that version prevails.

A mandate may be given by authentic deed or by private deed, even by letter (art. 1985 C. civ.). Where the transaction itself requires a notarial deed (e.g. sale of real estate, mortgage, gift), the notary will usually require a notarial or certified power of attorney — check with the notary before signing. Banks and authorities often use their own forms.
