Origin:
The term "plenipotentiary" first appeared in the 16th century as a title for ambassadors with the "full powers" (Latin: plēna potestas) to negotiate and sign treaties on behalf of their governments. The word was later extended to denote any agent or representative with similar authority.
In international diplomacy, a plenipotentiary is typically a head of state, minister, or ambassador who is authorized to conclude binding agreements on behalf of their country. The credentials of a plenipotentiary are verified by the issuance of a letter of credence, which empowers them to act as their government's representative.
In addition to its use in diplomacy, the term "plenipotentiary" is also used in law to refer to a person who has been granted the full authority to act on behalf of another party in legal matters. For example, a power of attorney may grant a person plenipotentiary authority to manage property or act as an attorney-in-fact.
