Power of Attorney from India to UAE — Step-by-Step Process

How Indian nationals can execute a POA in India that's valid in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across the UAE.

Indian nationals abroad and in India regularly need POAs for UAE property, business and family matters. The process involves an Indian notary or sub-registrar, then MEA attestation in India, then UAE Embassy attestation in New Delhi, and finally MOFA attestation once the document arrives in the UAE — along with a certified Arabic translation.

Apostille vs Attestation

India is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, but the UAE traditionally required full embassy attestation. Recent updates have changed acceptance in some cases — check current requirements before starting. We track these changes and advise accordingly.
