Advice from our team

Things to watch out for

Frequently asked questions

Can you guarantee approval?

No. Approval is entirely at the discretion of the embassy or Immigration officer. We focus on accuracy and completeness of the file.

Do you file the application for me?

Most posts require the applicant to file in person or through the official portal. We prepare, translate and certify the supporting pack.

Which documents need notarisation?

Typically foreign-issued documents such as degrees, police clearances and relationship certificates. The exact list depends on the post.

What are the guidelines for translating foreign military service records for visa or residency purposes?

Certified translation

Practitioner's view to "What are the guidelines for translating foreign military service records for visa or residency purposes?" — Inbound chain for foreign documents: notarisation or Apostille in the country of origin → that country's embassy in Bangkok (non-Apostille states only) → Thai translation → MFA certification, after which DBD, district offices, Immigration and the Thai courts accept the file. Multi-language certified translation for use in Thailand runs in three layers: translation by a native/MFA-recognised translator, a certificate of accuracy sealed by the translation company or a Notary Public lawyer, then MFA legalisation of that translation.
