Document checklist

- Power of attorney

- Bank statement or bank letter
Must be signed and stamped by the bank; an app-printed statement without the bank stamp is commonly refused
- Thai national ID card

Cautions
- The company affidavit normally has to be freshly issued, because destinations commonly set a maximum age for it
- Confirm with the employer or receiving body whether Arabic or English is required, as the requirement differs between agencies
- 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.
