Valtuutetulla

Valtuutetulla is a Finnish grammatical form used to denote “with the authorized person” or “by the authorized representative.” It is the adessive singular form of valtuutettu, a noun that can refer to an authorized person, deputy, agent, or proxy. In Finnish law and governance, valtuutetut are individuals who have been given a mandate to act on behalf of another person or organization. The authority behind this role arises from valtuutus (authorization, mandate) or valtakirja (power of attorney). The concept is common in contexts such as business, politics, and legal matters.

In practical use, valtuutetulla appears in sentences describing who has authority to act for another party. For example, “Valtuutetulla on oikeus edustaa yhtiötä” means “The authorized representative has the right to represent the company.” The term is also encountered in discussions of proxies in elections or situations where a person is empowered to act in another’s absence, often in connection with powers of attorney or delegated authority. Related terms include valtuutus, valtakirja and valtuuttaminen, which refer to the act of granting authority and the documents that formalize it.

Notes on usage: valtuutetulla is a grammatical case form rather than a standalone concept. In everyday Finnish, one would typically refer to the person as valtuutettu or describe the role as the authorized representative, rather than using valtuutetulla as a noun by itself. See also valtakirja and valtuutus for related legal instruments.
