Our lawyers can provide guidance on the necessary steps for foreign nationals.
2. Can a power of attorney be revoked or modified?
Yes, a power of attorney can be revoked or modified by the principal (the person who granted the power) at any time, provided they are mentally competent. Our lawyers can assist with the necessary documentation and procedures to ensure the revocation or modification is legally valid and effective.
5. How long does it take to register a power of attorney in Bangladesh?

A valid power of attorney in Bangladesh must be in writing, signed by the principal, and witnessed by at least two people. It must also clearly specify the scope of authority granted to the appointed representative. Our lawyers can ensure your power of attorney meets all legal requirements.
6. What are the consequences of not registering a power of attorney when required?
