A Power of Attorney for receiving goods is a document authorizing one party (the agent) to act on behalf of another party (the principal) when collecting goods, cargo, materials, and other items.

This type of power of attorney is necessary when the principal cannot personally receive the goods—for example, due to being in another city, lacking the time or ability to collect the items personally, or needing to delegate receipt to an employee or third party.

Power of Attorney for receiving goods is widely used in commercial activities; interactions with transport companies, warehouses, and suppliers; everyday situations requiring delegation of parcel/goods collection (e.g., shipments from online stores or other deliveries).

The Power of Attorney for receiving goods may be executed in simple written form (without notarization).
