Form TC 96-336 is specifically designed to grant a motor vehicle POA in Kentucky. The form requires detailed information about the principal and the agent, including their full names and addresses, to ensure that both parties are identified. The Kentucky POA form outlines the specific actions that the agent is authorized to perform on behalf of the principal:
Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) Chapter 457 addresses the Uniform Power of Attorney Act, which provides a comprehensive legal framework for creating and using power of attorney. For example, the KRS 457.100 section details the circumstances under which a POA can be terminated.[1]
This can occur when the principal revokes it, the purpose of the POA is accomplished, or the principal dies. It also discusses how the authority granted can be limited or conditioned.
To be legally binding, the form must be signed by the principal in the presence of a notary. The notary must then notarize the form to confirm the principal’s identity and signature.[2]

Purchased Vehicle Information
Enter details about the vehicle being purchased. This field includes the year, make, model, vehicle identification number (VIN), body type, and current license plate number. You will also need to provide the odometer reading at the time of purchase.

If a vehicle is being traded in as part of the transaction, fill in the same details as in Section 1 for the trade-in vehicle. This section also requires the odometer reading.
Vehicle Owner or Lessee Information & Statement
In this section, you need to provide the name of the vehicle owner or lessee, email address, and phone number. Also, include the street address, city, state, and ZIP code. You then appoint the attorney-in-fact by writing their full legal name and address. Confirm their authorization to apply for title certificates, disclose mileage, and transfer title.
Section for Odometer Certification
Mark the appropriate certification regarding the odometer reading. Two options are provided: one for when the odometer reading exceeds its mechanical limits and another for when it is inaccurate, indicating a discrepancy.
Notary Information & Signature
After filling out all the necessary information, the vehicle owner’s signature must be notarized. Provide the notary’s full legal name, email address, and phone number, along with their address, city, state, and ZIP code. The notary will verify the identity of the person signing the form, usually through a driver’s license. The notary will then sign and date the form and provide their commission number and expiration date.[2]
