We consider solutions of the Stokes system in a neighborhood of a point in which the velocity $u$ vanishes of order $d$. We prove that there exists a divergence-free polynomial $P$ in $x$ with $t$-dependent coefficients of degree $d$ which approximates the solution $u$ of order $d+\alpha$ for certain $\alpha>0$. The polynomial $P$ satisfies a Stokes equation with a forcing term which is a sum of two polynomials in $x$ of degrees $d-1$ and $d$.

Keywords: Navier-Stokes equations, Stokes equations, Oseen equations, unique continuation..
