Applying as a legally registered spouse. The documents normally translated and legalised are Marriage certificate, Divorce certificate, Birth certificate, House registration, Thai national ID card, Police clearance certificate, using the translation standard Belgium accepts.
Obtain both the marriage certificate (Kor Ror 3) and the marriage register extract (Kor Ror 2); many destinations ask for both
Where the divorce was by judgment, the judgment plus a certificate of finality is needed
A registrar-certified copy is required, not an ordinary photocopy
A current registrar-certified extract is required rather than the household booklet you keep at home
Used as supporting evidence alongside a certified civil-registration document
State the destination country and purpose when applying, because the certificate is issued for the stated purpose
Marriage certificate, Divorce certificate, Birth certificate, House registration, Thai national ID card, Police clearance certificate. Each should carry a certified translation and consular legalisation as the receiving authority requires.
Where there was a previous marriage, evidence of how every prior marriage ended is required, not only the most recent one
Thailand acceded to the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention on 30 June 2026 and it enters into force for Thailand on 28 February 2027, so no Thai Apostille is issued yet, so no Apostille is issued in Thailand. The working route is certified translation, legalisation by the Department of Consular Affairs (MFA), and then attestation at the destination country’s mission in Thailand where the receiving authority requires it.
Translation into the official language of the region where it is filed (Dutch, French or German) by a translator sworn before a Belgian court
Work from the wording of the request itself and rebuild the bundle with the original, the translation and the certification stamps together, which reduces a second request.
It is normally required, and it should be recent enough to satisfy the destination rule.
