Is the legal representative the same as legal person and legal representative?
|
A：

Dissimilarity. The legal representative is an individual, while a legal person is an organization, such as companies, state organs, institutions and so on. The legal representative is also an individual, who is authorized by the legal person to perform a specific duty. The legal representative is registered with the industry and commerce, so it does not need the authorization of the legal person to exercise its functions and powers. However, the legal representative does not have the industrial and commercial registration and needs to be authorized by the legal person separately. If the legal representative exceeds the scope or time limit of the authorization, he will no longer be the legal representative.
