Amtsnotariat St. Gallen

Recht & Finanzen – Beurkundung von Vorsorgeauftrag und Hinterlegung

Checked in July 2026

What this service does for you

With an advance directive (Vorsorgeauftrag), you decide in advance who should represent you if you lose the capacity to make decisions. This can suddenly happen, for example, after a severe stroke. The official notary offices (Amtsnotariate) in the canton of St. Gallen notarize such advance directives and living wills (Patientenverfügungen) and can store them safely. It is worthwhile to arrange this early and not wait for an emergency, also for caring relatives themselves.
