Utah Power of Attorney Requirements

To be legally binding, the Uniform Power of Attorney Act mandates that powers of attorney enacted in Utah must meet the following requirements:

  1. The POA form must contain the following information:
    • The name and contact information of the principal and agent(s)
    • Clear and specific language describing what powers are granted to the agent
    • When the agent’s powers begin and end
    • The date of execution
    • Signatures of the principal and agent
  2. The principal must acknowledge their signature on the document in front of a notary public.

Note that if you don’t include an end date or condition for the agent’s powers, your power of attorney will be presumed durable, meaning the agent’s powers will still be active if you become incapacitated.
