Our Team of 6 Licensed Notary Public Attorneys

Overseas banks, counterparties and registries usually want evidence that a Thai company exists and that its signatory has authority. The core record is the company certificate issued by the Department of Business Development (DBD), which lists directors and signing conditions. The notarial attorney certifies copies or signatures within the certificate's scope only—not the company's finances or every resolution term.

Core record: DBD company certificate — Provided by Thai Notary Law & Service Co., Ltd., DBD Reg. 0405565001923, Thailand.

How to use Notarizing Thai company documents for overseas use

  1. 1

    Contact us via LINE @Thainotary or call +66 94-895-8999 to describe the document.

  2. 2

    Send a photo/scan in advance so our attorney can review and quote.

  3. 3

    Confirm the appointment and recipient requirements; online consultation does not replace required in-person signing.

  4. 4

    Prepare original documents and ID/passport per the checklist below.

  5. 5

    Have the attorney inspect originals and perform the appropriate certification; timing is assessed after review.

Which company records recipients usually request

Commonly requested records are the company certificate, shareholder list (Bor.Or.J.5), memorandum, articles and board or shareholder resolutions. Many recipients set a maximum age for the certificate, so obtain a fresh DBD copy after receiving the recipient's list rather than reusing an old one.

Who may sign a resolution or corporate POA

Check the authorized-director clause in the certificate—for example, joint signature by two directors or use of the company seal. If an authorized director is abroad, plan an overseas signing, which usually needs a local notary there plus the legalization route the recipient accepts.

Preparing company documents step by step

1. Obtain the recipient's document list, wording and language. 2. Order a fresh DBD certificate. 3. Draft the resolution or POA to match director authority. 4. Translate where Thai is not accepted. 5. Sign before the attorney for certification. 6. Submit to the MFA Department of Consular Affairs and embassy if required.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How recent must the company certificate be?

There is no single rule; the recipient sets it. Ask before ordering from the DBD.

Can a non-director employee sign for the company?

Only with a clear POA or resolution granting authority, and if the recipient accepts that arrangement.

How is the charge assessed?

Tell us the document type, pages, signers, language and destination. Staff issue a written quote after reviewing the scope; government or embassy fees are paid separately at the authority's published rate.
