CERTIFICATIONSIdentityReasonable steps must be taken to confirm identity of the person giving
authority. The Registrar has not issued any requirements in this regard,
however due care must be taken to ensure the conveyancer's client is who
they say they are. Photographic identification from a reliable source
would seem to be a reasonable method to employ here. Again, the New Zealand
Law Society is issuing guidelines
to specify what it considers is sufficient for this purpose. The Registrar-General
of Land is also specifying requirements that ensure satisfaction of this
obligation. Certifications |
