Minnesota General/Financial Power of Attorney

How to Get Power of Attorney in Minnesota

To set up a power of attorney, both the agent and principal fill out and sign a power of attorney form.

In Minnesota, the official name for a power of attorney is a Statutory Short-Form Power of Attorney and is governed by Minnesota Statutes, Section 523.23.

If a problem arises with a power of attorney or the agent, a principal can end the arrangement at any time with a revocation of power of attorney form.

Minnesota POA Requirements

For a power of attorney document to be valid in Minnesota, it must adhere to the aforementioned statute section. The key POA requirements are that the document contain:

  • the principal’s name and address
  • the agent’s name and address
  • the date the POA is signed
  • the powers granted
  • the signature of a notary public
  • the date of when powers begin and expire

All of the documents made available for download on this page conform to the legal requirements in the state of Minnesota.
