The out-of-court notice (εξώδικη δήλωση) by which someone in Greece revokes an authorisation or power of attorney they gave: it describes the authority, revokes it from service, asks for the original back and an account, and names the third parties being told. Under the Greek Civil Code the authority ends on a revocation declared to the agent or the third party (arts. 218–219), so proof matters: a court bailiff (δικαστικός επιμελητής) serves it, and the report of service proves content and date. A notarial power of attorney is revoked only by notarial deed (art. 220); the notice is then served together with the notary's deed.

The written revocation of a general or special power of attorney in Cyprus, addressed to the person you appointed. It states that their authority has ended, asks for the original back and an account of what they did, and lists the third parties — banks, the Land Registry, government departments, counterparties — who are sent a copy. In Cyprus a revocation binds third parties only once they learn of it, and until then the attorney can still bind you towards them. It is sent by registered post or by hand against a signature.

A joint statement in which two spouses or civil partners in Cyprus record what belongs to each, when and how it was acquired — before the marriage, by gift, by inheritance — what is shared and who contributed to what. Under Law 232/1991, if the marriage ends, a spouse who contributed to the increase in the other's property can claim a share of it, and the contribution is presumed to be one third unless shown otherwise. A statement signed in calmer times is evidence of exactly that. It waives no rights and transfers no property.

The text in which someone living in Greece invites and hosts a person applying for a visa at a Greek consulate. Consulates accept it only as a solemn declaration (ypefthyni dilosi) under Law 1599/1986, with the host's signature authenticated or issued on gov.gr, and with the details they ask for: both people's names, addresses, dates of birth, passport numbers and occupations, the purpose, the dates, and the costs the host covers, which the host chooses. The gov.gr declaration is free: paste this text into it, or sign the PDF and certify the signature at a KEP or on docs.gov.gr.
