Overview
Some registered documents, such as a Power of Attorney or a Will, can be cancelled at the wish of the person who executed them, through a Cancellation or Revocation Deed.
When you need it
- Revoking a GPA or SPA
- Revoking an earlier Will
Documents usually required
Open as checklist- Copy of the document to be cancelled
- ID proof and photographs of the executant
- Two witnesses with ID proof
This is an indicative list. Exact requirements depend on the property, the authority and your situation, and we confirm the full list after reviewing your papers.
How it works
- 1
Review
We confirm that the document can be cancelled unilaterally.
- 2
Draft and register
The cancellation deed is drafted and registered.
- 3
Notify
Where needed, the attorney and the authorities are informed.
Good to know
Completed transfers such as a registered Sale Deed or Gift Deed generally cannot be cancelled unilaterally. That usually needs the consent of both parties or a court order.
