Spain: How to Obtain and Submit Your Spanish Power of Attorney

Before you start: Check your country's Hague Convention status

The notarization process depends on whether your country of incorporation is a member of the Hague Convention. This determines which option is available to you.

Check the Hague Convention status table

Hague Convention country → You can use Legitify (recommended) or arrange notarization yourself

• Non-Hague country → You must arrange notarization yourself; additional steps apply (see Option B below)

Option A: Use Legitify — Recommended for Hague Convention countries

Legitify is a fast, fully digital notarization and apostille service. We've secured discounted rates for Taxually customers. The entire process takes approximately one week.

1. Sign and upload the document Download the Power of Attorney from CrossTax, print it, and sign it with a wet signature (pen on paper). Upload the signed version to CrossTax.

2. Start the Legitify process Visit our Legitify Partnership Page and follow their guided process.

3. Complete identity verification Follow Legitify's steps to verify your identity. You'll need your phone and a valid ID document. This takes approximately 15–20 minutes.

4. Receive and share the legalized document Legitify will notarize and apostille your document within 3–7 business days, then courier the original directly to our office. Once complete:
