in civil case no peronal appearance is required , if advocate is appointed.
if it is at stage of final hearing and for cross examination , called by court , then required to be attednded teh court.
however , commission to be appointed for cross exanining u from one court to another court in another country . your advocate should apply for the same.

In civil proceedings, it is not at all necessary for all the defendants to appear before the court in person unless specifically directed by the Court. The defendant(s) may appear in the court through their authorised agents or advocate(s). Therefore, there is no need of seeking exemption from personal appearance of the defendant(s).

The person in abroad can engage a lawyer to represent them in court though at the time of evidence they will have to be physically present to depose before the court of law.
