The simple answer to this question is yes. Documents are generally transferrable from another state to Georgia. However, there could be some differences in law which might cause some problems. The same can be said if you are moving out of Georgia to another state. Federal law generally requires a state to recognize a document which was validly executed under the laws of a sister state. Regardless, it is always a good idea to get an attorney licensed in the state to review the documents to ensure there won’t be any problems when the documents are needed.
