Overview

Why Rwanda asks for a legalised power of attorney

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.

Registering a local entity, distributor or tender bid in Africa commonly requires legalised company documents from India.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Rwanda 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 and then apostilled by the MEA. Rwanda accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

How to get a power of attorney apostilled for Rwanda

  1. Share your document and buyer's checklist

    Send a scan of the power of attorney and any list your buyer or authority in Rwanda 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. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

  5. Tracked return

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

What to send us

  • Original POA signed before a notary
  • Board resolution authorising the signatory
  • Passport copies of the signatory and the attorney
  • Company registration copy

Avoid rejection

  • Name the attorney exactly as in their passport.
  • Spell out the powers clearly; vague POAs are rejected abroad.
