EPOAR - Electronic Power of Attorney Registration

Welcome to EPOAR

The Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) welcomes you to the Electronic Power of Attorney Registration (EPOAR) website. EPOAR is an electronic facility for the submission and payment of Powers of Attorney (POA) made under the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000. EPOAR is not a facility for you to draft your PoA. We will check the validity of POA deeds submitted via EPOAR but will not check data input by users.

Individual

The Register New Individual User option should be selected if you are registering a POA on your own behalf or for a family member or friend. If you don’t have a PoA please consult our PoA Guidance before registering.

Agent

The Register New Agent option should be selected if you are a professional registering POAs on behalf of a client.
