Applicable Thai laws
Translation and certification of public files for overseas use follows the ISO 17100:2015 Translation Services protocol. Our certified translations are issued with a Certified Translation Statement and notarial seal.
Apostille procedure follows the Hague Convention of 5 October 1961 Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public files. Thailand is not yet a member, so files bound for Hague member states must always pass MFA + destination embassy.
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.
NAATI translation for clients 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.
