Power of Attorney for Expats & Dual Citizens in British Columbia
Create your power of attorney online, designed to meet British Columbia’s requirements — written with expats and dual citizens in mind.
Your will is free. The power of attorney is added to it at checkout — $29 USD.
What expats and dual citizens should know
- If you hold property or a will in another country, a new will can revoke the old one and leave those assets without cover.
- Tell us if you already hold a will abroad — we scope the revocation so it survives.
- Immovable property is generally governed by the law of the country it sits in, not where you live.
- Name someone local to foreign assets who can deal with them without travelling.
- British Columbia follows British Columbia requirements — a power of attorney has its own formalities, which are not the same as those for a will.

The Standard will is free — a complete, legally valid will at no cost. The Advanced will and the optional add-ons are paid.
