- For companies: certificate of company registration (issued within 3 months) and the authorised signatory's ID
- If the document is in a foreign language, an official translation by a registered translator is required — we offer combined translation + notary if needed
- House registration (Tabien Baan) or current address proof in สหรัฐอาหรับเอมิเรตส์ / UAE (driver licence, utility bill is acceptable)
- Recent 2-inch passport-style photos (×2) — required only for certain documents such as Affidavits or Statutory Declarations
- If using a representative, attach a power of attorney with a 30 THB stamp duty plus a copy of the representative's ID
- Original documents to be certified, plus one photocopy — do not staple them together before submission
