Spanish term or phrase: calidad de depositario
Hello. From a document giving advice on creating a company. I think the original was translated from French:

"Solicitud realizada en el impreso facilitado por el XXX. Debe contener los siguientes datos:
-**calidad de depositario** en caso de que se trate de un representante."

XXX being a government office.

Thanks for your help :)
