س: السلام عليكم، شركة ذات مسؤولية محدودة يمتلكها شريكان بنسب ٥١% و٤٩%. صاحب النسبة الأعلى يختص بالإدارة كما جاء في عقد التأسيس ولكنه حرر (توكيلاً خاصًا واعتماد بالتوقيع) لشخص آخر أوكله بمهام الشركة؛ مثل تعيين العمالة وإنهاء الخدمات والرواتب وما نحو ذلك. مَن منهما يعتبر المدير الذي يُقَاضَى أمام المحاكم العمالية؟

Q: Hi, I have been given a special power of attorney by my company owner to represent the company. However, now that the company is not performing well financially and there is some outstanding to be cleared by the company to service providers like Etisalat and a few others as well. In such circumstance when the company is liable to pay the amount and the owner is not coming back from India due to medical reasons, what is my position in all this?

Q: The question is connected with an LLC company from Dubai. I am the only employee. I am not sure if I can use Director titles for people not listed on the company organization chart (not employed). I need to sign an agreement with 2 signatories on our side. The second signatory is a contractor from abroad (contracted through a Polish/European entity). Can I give him a Power Of Attorney, so based on Dubai law - can he sign documents on behalf of the LLC? Which title can we use for him as a person which has a Power of Attorney from LLC or me: Managing Director OR Account Manager? Can we create a power of attorney only in English? Is it mandatory to use Arabic?

In view of the fact that the manager is primarily the point of reference for the company in the business streets, he is generally authorized by a power of attorney provided by the shareholders of the company or via the MOA of the company. In certain cases exceeding the powers given to the manager may make the manager, or the LLC itself, liable, depending on the nature of the manager’s actions.

With the introduction of the new procedures for obtaining a power of attorney (POA) remotely in the UAE, after it was mandatory to appear in person in front of the notary public as a global rule to ensure the identity and intention of the person requesting a POA, we put between your hands this brief guide for how you get it done.
