What Is POA Cancellation?
POA cancellation is an official deed by which the principal revokes a previously issued power of attorney.
Why Notice Matters
After cancellation, the former agent and relevant authorities may need to be informed to prevent future use of the revoked POA.
Important: Canceling a POA does not automatically undo actions already performed by the agent before the cancellation was effective.
