Pre-Commitment Freeze — Power of attorney authority
Primary official evidence
Before final signature or a non-refundable payment, freeze the list of accepted documents, restrictions and rights as of that date. Any later change should reopen review rather than pass silently. A general power of attorney is not enough by itself. Verify that it expressly covers the act required for the transaction, such as sale, purchase, mortgage or receipt of funds, and that principal and attorney identities match. For a power issued abroad, verify form, legalization or apostille chain and translation where required under TKGM rules. A foreign stamp alone does not guarantee acceptance. Before a non-refundable commitment, freeze the dated evidence actually relied on and refresh any item that can change before signature or payment.
