I want my father to collect my diploma of higher education, but I live in Finland at the moment, I can't go to the consulate for the second month, so I made a power of attorney myself in English and Ukrainian, and I want to certify it with a Finnish notary and send it to my father . Is it possible to pick up a diploma in this way and will it be necessary to legalize a power of attorney with a Finnish certificate in Ukraine? If so, where?

The Law of Ukraine "On Notaries" specifies: abroad, notarial acts are performed exclusively in consulates of Ukraine. The law does not provide for the possibility of issuing a power of attorney to a "Ukrainian" representative to a foreign notary public. There is a high probability that a higher educational institution in Ukraine will not accept such a power of attorney. When the power of attorney arrives in Ukraine, it must be translated from English to Ukrainian (required by a certified translator), then the correctness of the translation must be certified by a notary public. Make a power of attorney in English only, and already in Ukraine make a translation into Ukrainian. With the translation of the power of attorney, certified by a Ukrainian notary, the chances of getting a diploma at the university will be higher.
