Free Authorization Letter Template
Authorize another person to act on your behalf, whether to collect documents, access an account, or handle a task while you are away. This letter names the authorized person, spells out exactly what they may do, and sets a start and end date for the permission. Many banks, schools, and offices also ask for photo ID or their own form, so confirm requirements first.

This is a general template and not legal advice. Some institutions require their own authorization form, notarization, or photo identification, and the rules for delegating authority vary by state and by organization. Confirm the recipient's requirements before you rely on this letter.

Questions
Are these documents legally valid?+
These are professionally structured templates using standard clause language. Whether a completed document is legally binding depends on your state's requirements, proper signing (and notarization or witnesses where required), and your specific situation. For anything high-stakes, have an attorney review it. Nothing here is legal advice.
Is it really free?+
Yes. Filling in a document, previewing it, printing it, and saving it as a PDF are free with no signup. A free account saves your documents; Pro adds Word and Excel export and unlimited saved documents.
Do you store what I enter?+
No. The document is generated in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to our servers unless you choose to save it to an account, and saved documents can be deleted anytime.
Can I edit the document after generating it?+
Yes. Every field stays editable, and you can regenerate as many times as you like. Print or save the final version as a PDF when it looks right.
Will this hold up if it needs to be signed or notarized?+
The template includes signature lines. Some documents need witnesses or a notary to be enforceable in your state. Check your state's requirements before signing, and use a notary where one is required.
