Saudi MoJ Enables Issuance of Powers of Attorney by Phone in Qatif as Precaution

Saudi Ministry of Justice

The Saudi Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has enabled the issuance of all types of powers of attorney (PoAs) in Qatif through the Unified Communication Center’s number 1950. The step is aligned with the government’s measures applied in Qatif to protect public health.

“Starting today, the people of Qatif can get all types of PoAs issued from the comfort of their homes as a precautionary measure against the coronavirus,” the MoJ said.

“PoAs are issued by calling the universal access number 1950, verification of identity by a notary public, and approval of the PoA after verifying the registered phone number,” the ministry added.

“The step is part of the government’s precautionary measures against the coronavirus (COVID-19) aiming to safeguard public health,” the MoJ noted.
