The registered powers of attorney can be extended by the principal by accessing the Tax Agency 's electronics office in the section of the Register of Powers of Attorney corresponding to "Consultation, extension and revocation of powers of attorney granted".
An option is available to simultaneously extend all powers of attorney that are due to expire in the next two months.

Likewise, powers of attorney can be extended by the principal in person at the Delegations and Administrations of the Tax Agency, and by means of a public document or a private document with a notarized signature submitted to the Tax Agency.
