The instrument states who may act, for which property and with what authority
The authority may cover a sale or purchase, negotiation of price and payment, execution of a notarial deed, creation or release of a mortgage, rights of use, partition or representation before a notary, bank, municipality, cadastre or property registry. The translation follows the scope stated in the source without adding or extending powers.
Where a specific property is named, its identifier, address, area, shares, boundaries and title-deed details remain separate and consistent. A broadly worded mandate still requires exact preservation of limitations, conditions and any right to delegate.
Parties, property and every granted power are checked in one context
The linguistic check covers personal and company names, identity or registration numbers, addresses, cadastral identifiers, title-deed number and date, price, currency, bank accounts, deadlines and annexes. Figures, negatives and conditional clauses receive separate comparison with the source because one omitted word can alter the scope of representation.
Declarations, notarial certificates, an apostille, consular certification or other supporting documents often accompany the authority. They can form one translation project so that names, property details and legal terms stay consistent across every file.
Legal terminology is revised without changing the principal’s expressed intent
A suitable legal translator handles the text and a second specialist reviews the parties, empowering verbs, limitations, cross-references and notarial formulas. Bilingual projects can use a controlled glossary for ownership, possession, real rights, mortgage, encumbrance, undivided share, purchase price and delegation.
La Fit Trans translates the supplied instrument and can prepare a certified version under the requested procedure. Drafting the authority, confirming title and deciding whether the instrument is legally sufficient for a transaction remain with the principal and the competent lawyer or notary.
Certification and cross-border recognition depend on where the instrument is signed and used
For a transaction in Bulgaria, Article 37 of the Obligations and Contracts Act permits authority for a contract in notarial form to be granted in writing with simultaneous notarisation of signature and content. Bulgarian consular guidance requires two identical copies for authority to transfer or create real rights in property. These formal requirements are distinct from translation.
For an instrument executed before a foreign notary, apostille or legalisation, translation certification and accompanying declarations depend on the issuing country, applicable treaties and the receiving Bulgarian notary or authority. A Bulgarian instrument intended abroad follows the rules of the destination and the named recipient.
Price of translating a real estate power of attorney
The price reflects the language pair, length, complexity of powers, number of properties and annexes, legibility of notarial wording, required layout and deadline. A short mandate for one act differs from an instrument covering several properties, banks, authorities, declarations and transaction conditions.
Certified translation, certification of a translator’s signature, apostille, consular processing, courier services and official fees are quoted separately when needed. The proposal therefore distinguishes linguistic work from each additional procedure.
Timing reflects legal complexity and the readiness of the complete file set
Scheduling depends on length, language, number of powers and properties, file quality and the need for revision or a certified copy. A cross-border property transaction also benefits from time to align names, cadastral data and terminology with the title deed, preliminary agreement or related documents.
If apostille, consular certification or official processing is needed, the institutional period is added to translation time. Separate tracking of the linguistic and administrative stages provides a realistic completion date.

Prices are for one translation page of 1,800 characters including spaces, excluding VAT.
The listed prices are for translation only. Certification, apostille, legalization, state fees and other additional procedures are not included and are determined separately according to the document and requirements.
A legible scan or PDF supports a reliable preliminary assessment
A clear copy showing every page, certification, stamp and annex is normally sufficient for a price and time estimate. The original is required only when the selected certification or official procedure calls for it. The file may be handled online, through an office or by courier.
If the project includes a title deed, declarations, certificates or a preliminary contract, joint review helps keep the parties, property and conditions consistently written across the complete set.
An ISO 17100 process for legally sensitive transaction wording
La Fit Trans follows an ISO 17100-certified process covering selection of a translator with suitable legal competence, project management, translation, independent revision and final control. Names, property data, registration numbers, amounts, currencies, negatives, references and every granted action are checked.
Version tracking prevents old wording from being mixed into the final authority. This is especially important when a notary or lawyer has amended a property description, price, condition or granted power before execution.
Related documents in a real estate transaction
A property power of attorney may be connected with a title deed, preliminary agreement, cadastral plan, tax valuation, encumbrance certificate, bank document, party declarations or civil-status document. Each has its own purpose, while controlled terminology links the parties, property, price and rights throughout the transaction file.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is checked in a real estate power-of-attorney translation?
The check covers the parties and their identity data, property description and identifier, every granted power, limitations, amounts, dates, references, certification wording and annexes. The translation does not add authority absent from the source.
Must signature and content be notarised simultaneously?
For authority concerning a contract in notarial form under Bulgarian law, Article 37 requires written authority with simultaneous notarisation of signature and content. In a cross-border case, the exact route is confirmed with the receiving notary or authority.
Can a foreign power of attorney be used for property in Bulgaria?
It may be possible, but form, apostille or legalisation, translation and accompanying declarations depend on the country of execution and the Bulgarian notary’s requirements. Preliminary review establishes the translation and document scope.
Is a scan sufficient for price and timing?
A legible scan or PDF of every page is normally sufficient for assessment. The original is needed when the selected certification, apostille, legalisation or other official procedure requires it.
Does translation include a legal review of the authority?
The service provides accurate legal translation and linguistic control of the supplied text. Drafting the powers, checking ownership and determining legal sufficiency for the transaction remain with the principal and the competent lawyer or notary.
Professional translation of a real estate power of attorney
La Fit Trans assesses the language, parties, number of properties, length and complexity of powers, certification wording, annexes, required form of translation and deadline. The proposal separates translation and revision from certification and institutional processing.
