Our Legalization Chain takes slightly longer than Apostille but delivers equivalent legal effect. We get every step right the first time so records aren't rejected at destination.

After MFA, the final step is filing at the destination consulate in Bangkok. Each consular post has its own turnaround, fees, and requirements — typically 3–10 business days. Some embassies (China, Germany, France) require advance online appointments. Our team books the slot and submits on your behalf when embassy rules permit.
Clients who cannot travel to MFA Chaeng Watthana can engage us under a Power of Attorney with THB 30 stamp duty, plus copies of both parties' Thai national IDs. We handle every step — filing, follow-up, document collection, and onward consulate submission.
Common reasons for rejection or delay: missing origin-agency certification, translation not matching the source, unclear stamps/signatures, expired documents (e.g. Single Status past 6 months), or using a translator not on the MFA list. A pre-filing review with our team eliminates these risks.
Foreign nationals living in Thailand can use our MFA legalization service for personal documents created in Thailand — Thai marriage certificate to a Thai national, child birth certificate, Power of Attorney, Affidavit, etc. — before sending them home.
