Another key zone is
Compliance with Thai authorities
NAATI translation for customers targeting Australia follows the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters protocol, and is accepted directly by DHA, Centrelink, Medicare, and Australian courts without further MFA or embassy steps.
Notary Public services in Thailand operate under the Lawyers Council of Thailand Regulation on Registration of Notarial Services Attorneys B.E. 2551 (and amendments), which requires every notarising lawyer to complete training and register with the Council.
Apostille procedure follows the Hague Convention of 5 October 1961 Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public paperwork. Thailand’s Apostille accession (30 June 2026) only enters into force on 28 February 2027, so paperwork bound for Hague member states must always pass MFA + destination embassy.
Legalization by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs follows Department of Consular Affairs regulations — paperwork must first pass Notary Public, or be Thai government-issued paperwork that the Department recognises.
