An authorization letter lets someone else act on your behalf, for example claiming a document, picking up a card, or handling a transaction for you. Here is a simple format you can follow.
Start with the date and your full name and address.
Add a clear subject line, such as "Authorization Letter to Claim Documents."
In the first paragraph, state that you are authorizing a specific person to act for you. Include their full name and relationship to you if relevant.
Clearly state what they are allowed to do. Be specific, for example "to claim my ATM card on my behalf" rather than something vague.
Add your signature, printed name, and a valid ID number.
If required, have the letter notarized, some offices ask for this depending on what is being claimed.
Keep the letter short and direct. Offices usually reject letters that are too vague about what exactly the person is authorized to do.
