Frequently Asked Questions for Canada NRIs

How does an NRI in Canada create a Power of Attorney for India?+

The process: (1) NRI Legal Consultants drafts the POA in correct format, (2) You sign it before a Notary Public in Canada, (3) Get it apostilled or consulate-attested, (4) Send the original to India, (5) We register it at the Sub-Registrar office in India. We guide you through every step.

Can a Power of Attorney be used to sell property in India from Canada?+

Yes. A registered POA allows the attorney-holder to execute sale deeds, complete registration, and transfer property on your behalf while you remain in Canada. We draft property-specific POAs with appropriate safeguards against misuse.

How long is a Power of Attorney valid in India?+

A general Power of Attorney is typically valid for as long as specified or until revoked. For property transactions, a Special POA is recommended with specific transaction details. We advise on the appropriate type and validity period for your purpose.

Can a Power of Attorney be misused in India?+

Yes, POA misuse is a significant risk, especially for NRIs. We draft POAs with specific limitations, clear revocation clauses, and built-in safeguards. We also handle cases where POA has already been misused — filing criminal complaints and civil suits.

What is the difference between a General POA and Special POA for NRIs?+

A General POA grants broad authority (multiple transactions/matters). A Special POA is for a specific purpose (e.g., sell one specific property). For NRIs, we generally recommend Special POAs with clearly defined scope to reduce misuse risk.
