Your legal matter is in India. You are not.

A tenant who will not leave. A flat that needs selling. A father's estate to settle. A bank that wants a signature in person.

You do not always have to fly back. For a great many Indian legal matters, the right document — properly drafted, properly attested where you live — is enough to let someone act for you.

What usually stands in the way

  • Distance costs more than the work. A flight and a week of leave to sign one document is a poor trade, and it is often the only option anyone offers you.
  • The attestation step is where things fail. A deed signed at the wrong moment, or notarised without an apostille, gets refused in India — after it has been couriered there.
  • Nobody mentions stamping. A Power of Attorney executed abroad must be stamped in India within three months of arriving. Miss it and a sub-registrar can turn your attorney away.
  • You cannot easily tell who to trust. Engaging an advocate from another country, for a matter you cannot supervise, is its own risk.

What you can do from where you are

Each of these is drafted to current Indian law and comes with instructions for making it valid from abroad.

Power of Attorney

Let someone in India sell, let, collect, represent or operate on your behalf. Special or General, with consulate and apostille instructions.

How it works

STEP 1

Tell us the situation

Answer plain questions about the property or matter, you, and the person who will act for you. No legal vocabulary needed.

STEP 2

Read the draft before paying

You see the document first. If it is not what you need, you have lost nothing.

STEP 3

Execute it where you live

You get the PDF, an editable DOCX, and instructions for the consulate or apostille route in your country, plus the stamping step in India.

Paying from abroad

You do not need an international card, and we do not ask for one.

  • UPI works for NRIs. If your international mobile number is linked to your NRE or NRO account, you can pay by UPI from the US, UK, UAE, Singapore, Canada, Australia, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman or Hong Kong.
  • Netbanking from your NRE or NRO account works exactly as it does for anyone in India.
  • Indian debit and credit cards are accepted if you still hold one.
  • Everything is priced and charged in rupees, so there is no forex markup and no cross-border card decline.

No card is stored, and every document is a one-time payment. If you have no Indian account at all, email support@simplifylaw.in and we will work something out.

Questions

Can I get a Power of Attorney for India without flying back?

Yes. You draft it here, read it before paying, then execute it where you live — typically notarised and apostilled (or attested at an Indian consulate, for non-Hague countries) rather than signed in front of an Indian sub-registrar. Once it reaches India it must be stamped within three months of arrival, which the instructions we give you cover.

How much does a Power of Attorney cost?

₹4,999, one time, no subscription. You see the complete draft before you pay anything, so you can judge it — and cancel — before it costs you a rupee.

Can I pay from outside India?

Yes, without an international card. UPI works if your foreign mobile number is linked to your NRE or NRO account; netbanking from either account works as it does in India; Indian debit or credit cards are accepted if you still hold one. Everything is priced and charged in rupees, so there is no forex markup.

Is a will drafted here valid for assets I hold in India?

It is drafted to current Indian succession law with your India-based property and accounts in mind. For anything contested, or where immovable property is involved, we recommend an advocate in India reads it before you sign — the site can point you to listed advocates for that, and takes nothing for the introduction.

Can I pursue a builder delay under RERA from abroad?

Yes. The RERA guide on this site covers what possession delay entitles you to and how a complaint is filed without being physically present in India.

Does SimplifyLaw represent me in India, or appear before an authority on my behalf?

No. SimplifyLaw is not a law firm and does not appear for you or represent that your case is strong. It drafts documents to current Indian law and explains the execution steps; for representation or a contested matter, engage an advocate in India directly.

What this is, and what it is not

It is a properly drafted document, written to current Indian law including the BNS/BNSS changeover, with the execution steps spelled out for someone abroad — at a fraction of what distance normally costs you.

It is not a law firm, and it is not advice on your specific case. We do not appear for you, and we do not tell you your case is strong. For anything contested, or any sale of immovable property, have an advocate in India read the document before you sign it. If you want one, we can point you to listed advocates — we take nothing for the introduction.
