Power of attorney for vehicle registration, transfer and inspection
A power of attorney lets someone else, for example us, handle vehicle registration, transfer, technical inspection or insurance in the Czech Republic on your behalf. Download the form, fill it in and sign it.
A power of attorney is a written authorisation by which you let another person or company act on your behalf. For vehicles it is used for registration, re-registration, recording changes, technical inspection, homologation and insurance. The agent then deals with the authorities as if you were there.
Our form covers the usual vehicle matters in the Czech Republic, includes a right of substitution and is available in Czech and in a bilingual Czech + English version. For foreigners we recommend considering a certified signature and, where needed, a translation.
When you need it
registering a car from the EU, USA or Dubai without being present
transferring a vehicle to a new owner
arranging inspection, emissions, homologation and insurance

FAQ
Do I need a certified signature?
It depends on the authority and the action. Foreigners usually need a certified signature and translation. Ask us before signing, we can help arrange it.
Can the agent authorise another person?
Yes. The form includes a right of substitution, so the agent may grant a power of attorney to a third party.
