In Nepal, the Power of Attorney (PoA) is governed by the Muluki Civil Procedure Code 2074, allowing individuals to delegate legal authority to another person for various tasks.

It covers the procedure for authentication by court judges or consular officials, termination conditions, and frequently asked questions. With provisions to handle property transactions, legal claims, and court cases, this legal tool ensures efficient representation, especially for those abroad.
