Reyat will become the third man to be charged over the bombing. Prosecution spokesman Geoff Gaul said in Vancouver that Reyat would be charged prior to his release from prison. Two baggage handlers were killed. An hour after that explosion, another bomb brought down Air India Flight 182, from Montreal to New Delhi. All 329 people on board the jumbo jet, most of them Canadians, were killed.
Police believe both bombs originated in British Columbia, Canada.
They blame militant Sikh separatists targeting India's national airline. Reyat was convicted of manslaughter in connection with the Tokyo bombing and was jailed in Vancouver.
