Is NAATI translation necessary for Thai business documents submitted under Subclass 188 investor visas?

Is NAATI translation necessary for Thai business documents submitted under Subclass 188 investor visas? — Thai Notary Law works with NAATI-certified practitioners; every page carries the translator stamp and CPN so the file is accepted as submitted. For subclass 188, the Department of Home Affairs requires non-English documents to be accompanied by a NAATI-certified translation together with a copy of the original. Check that names match the passport spelling before lodgement, and confirm current requirements with the receiving authority.

This page covers using NAATI translations for visa lodgement and skills assessment. A Thai-language document intended for an Australian authority is translated into English by a translator certified by NAATI in the Thai→English direction, then issued with a certification statement and stamp showing the translator's CPN and certification expiry. The original (or a certified copy) is submitted together with the translation.
