New notarization list allows remote deals and 5-year power of attorney
The new executive regulations for the Certification Law in Kuwait, issued by Minister of Justice Nasser Al-Somaiti, introduce innovative procedures aimed at reducing the documentary cycle and expediting the certification process. These include the adoption of electronic and remote transactions. Among the provisions, the regulations permit certification and authentication via video using a secure electronic signature or verification code, while also specifying cases where electronic certification is not permissible, such as individuals with mental disabilities and adults aged 75 and above. The regulations also set the validity of agency agreements at five years, with exceptions extending up to 10 years for attorney agencies or those used outside Kuwait. Additionally, they emphasize the importance of visual and audio registration to protect the integrity and confidentiality of certification operations.
