Overview

When you need a legalised power of attorney in Libya

A power of attorney authorises a person or firm abroad to act for your company: register a branch, sign contracts, file trademarks, handle tenders or appear before courts and ministries. A power of attorney is executed by your company's authorised signatory, on stamp paper or letterhead as required, and signed before a notary.

Setting up a branch, appointing a local agent or opening a bank account in the Middle East usually starts with a legalised set of company documents from India.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Libya usually ask for a legalised power of attorney for branch or company registration, appointing a local representative or trademark filings, tenders and court cases.

A power of attorney issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the Embassy of Libya in New Delhi.

Libyan buyers and authorities regularly ask for legalised certificates of origin, invoices and health certificates with each consignment.

  1. Share your document and buyer's checklist

    Send a scan of the power of attorney and any list your buyer or authority in Libya gave you. We confirm the route, timeline and an all-inclusive quote.

  2. Notarisation

    A notary in India verifies the signature on the power of attorney or certifies the copy, which is the first stamp in the chain.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    The power of attorney is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, which checks your company's details and the signatory before stamping it.

  4. Ministry of External Affairs

    The MEA checks the chamber's signature and attests the power of attorney, which the Libya Embassy requires before it will legalise it.

  5. Libya Embassy legalisation

    The Embassy of Libya in New Delhi adds its legalisation stamp. This is the final stamp needed in India.

  6. Tracked return

    We courier the legalised document back by Blue Dart or another tracked courier, or you collect it from our Delhi office.
