When you need a legalised power of attorney in Vietnam
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.
Companies entering Asian markets usually need legalised incorporation and authority documents to register a subsidiary, office or local partner.
In Vietnam, a legalised power of attorney is typically requested for branch or company registration; it is also used for appointing a local representative and 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 Vietnam in New Delhi.
In our processing experience, Indian commercial documents for Vietnam go through Vietnam Embassy legalisation, even though personal and educational documents can now be apostilled.
