Legal basis
Legal basis: A Thai Notarial Services Attorney is authorized by the Lawyers Act B.E. 2528 and Council regulations to perform acknowledgements, jurats/affidavits, certified copies, translation certifications and statements of fact. For Myanmar, consular legalization plus the destination embassy attestation is required after MFA. Wrong format equals rejection — every notarization here is pre-formatted for the destination authority.
Service workflow
Workflow for Signature Certification in Thailand: (1) submit scans plus destination purpose, (2) we audit format/language/affidavit suitability for Myanmar, (3) you sign in front of the Notary Public at our office or your preferred location, (4) ID is verified and the notarial seal applied, (5) originals, copies and certified translation are bundled with a cover letter, (6) MFA legalizes the notary signature, (7) the Myanmar embassy/consulate attests, (8) tracked delivery to you or directly to the destination authority.
Fees and pricing
Notary fee for Signature Certification ranges from ฿500 to ฿1,200 per set, varying with page count, complexity and language. Same-day rush adds 30-50%; on-site notary in Thailand adds travel fee. MFA and Myanmar embassy fees are billed as government pass-throughs — every quote includes the full breakdown.
Acceptance in Myanmar
Acceptance in Myanmar: Myanmar is not a Hague party, so embassy/consular legalization is mandatory after MFA. The Signature Certification pack is assembled with notarial certificate, apostille/embassy stamp and certified translation in the exact order required by the destination authority.
Turnaround timeline
Typical timeline: notary appointment day 1 → MFA 1-3 business days → Myanmar embassy 2-7 business days, totaling ~3-10 business days subject to embassy queue. Same-day rush slots are available within 2 hours during office hours, with same-day MFA courier in Thailand.
Audience-specific pain points
Audience focus — Thai Citizen in Thailand: ประชาชนไทยที่ต้องนำเอกสารไปใช้ต่างประเทศ. Common rejection causes from Myanmar include wrong jurat/affidavit phrasing, uncertified translations, or out-of-order legalization. Our pre-check workflow eliminates these failure modes; if Myanmar rejects due to our error, we refund the notarial fee.
