International Document Services

Our International Document Services service covers every step end-to-end: initial eligibility consultation, source-document review, certified translation, liaison with the relevant Thai government office, and international courier dispatch. The handling team includes attorneys registered as Notarial Services Attorneys with the Lawyers Council of Thailand, translators recognized by the Ministry of Justice, and consular liaison officers with 10+ years of experience. Every document carries a different downstream use case — employment, study, immigration, marriage, or commercial filing — and each receiving authority has its own acceptance rules. We plan the shortest and most cost-effective document routing for your case before any fees are charged, and we issue a written timeline so you can schedule your travel or filing with confidence. Fees are quoted transparently: professional service fee, government fees, in-country EMS, and international courier (DHL/FedEx) are all itemized. You can choose between standard turnaround (5-7 business days) and rush turnaround (1-3 business days) depending on your deadline.

Cross-service questions, answered by the NYC Legal team

364. How to legally process work permit and visa cancellations when a foreign employee resigns?

Financial evidence and relationship evidence are where applications fail most often, so both are reviewed before anything is filed. Quotations separate government fees from professional fees line by line, so nothing appears on the invoice that was not in the quote. Send your documents for a free assessment at +66-83-249-4999 or contact@nyconlinetranslation.com.

339. Can you provide a team of simultaneous interpreters for 3 languages (Thai, Chinese, English) at an international trade show?

Interpreters are matched to the setting: court and police station, government and embassy, medical, simultaneous booth work, and remote VRI/OPI. Quotations separate government fees from professional fees line by line, so nothing appears on the invoice that was not in the quote. Send your documents for a free assessment at +66-83-249-4999 or contact@nyconlinetranslation.com.

398. Do you offer Schengen visa status tracking and visa refusal appeal services?

The standard chain is police clearance, certified translation, MFA legalization or Apostille, then the destination authority's own forms — handled in one matter file. Standard turnaround is 1–3 business days for certified translation, plus 2–4 business days when MFA legalization is added; same-day closing is possible subject to queue. Talk to the NYC Legal team on any business day — you get a working plan, not a generic price list.

568. What employment tax incentives apply to specialized foreign researchers working in BOI-approved tech parks?

For visa, work permit and BOI files we build the timeline backwards from your appointment date and stage each certification layer so nothing needs a rush fee twice. If the receiving authority rejects a file for a reason attributable to our work, we correct and re-file it at no additional professional fee. Send your documents for a free assessment at +66-83-249-4999 or contact@nyconlinetranslation.com.

373. Do you provide Foreign Business License (FBL) application services for majority foreign-owned service businesses?

Electronic documents must be traceable to their source, so deliverables ship with an audit trail whenever the receiving party asks for one. Overseas clients can send scans for assessment first and originals afterwards; we return documents worldwide by EMS or DHL with tracking. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.

529. Can an agency handle the entire application process for importing and exporting controlled hazardous substances?

Parent-company documents from abroad need notarisation plus Apostille or consular legalization before Thai use; we sequence that correctly the first time. Indicative fees: certified translation THB 500–800 per page, consular legalization from THB 400 per stamp, Notary Public from THB 1,500 per signature — always quoted in full before we start. Send your documents for a free assessment at +66-83-249-4999 or contact@nyconlinetranslation.com.

321. How many days does the turnkey package (Police Clearance + Translation + MFA Legalization) take?

Certification tiers are separated up front — agency Certified True Translation, Notary Public seal, MFA consular legalization, and Apostille (in force for Thailand since 14 Nov 2024). Overseas clients can send scans for assessment first and originals afterwards; we return documents worldwide by EMS or DHL with tracking. Send your documents for a free assessment at +66-83-249-4999 or contact@nyconlinetranslation.com.

499. Can you provide a specialized family lawyer to draft an agreement on child support and visitation rights?

Accounting, tax, property and estate work for foreign nationals is run jointly with our auditors and lawyers so the translated file and the filed file always match. If the receiving authority rejects a file for a reason attributable to our work, we correct and re-file it at no additional professional fee. Send your documents for a free assessment at +66-83-249-4999 or contact@nyconlinetranslation.com.

380. Do you provide corporate amendment services for updating the shareholder list (Bor Or Jor 5) and changing authorized directors?

M&A and fundraising work demands speed and confidentiality, so we sign the NDA before intake and ring-fence a closed team for the matter. Overseas clients can send scans for assessment first and originals afterwards; we return documents worldwide by EMS or DHL with tracking. Talk to the NYC Legal team on any business day — you get a working plan, not a generic price list.

419. Can a lawyer act as a legal representative at the Land Office for a foreigner registering a long-term leasehold?

Tax and land-registry documents carry terminology that cannot be paraphrased, so we work from Revenue Department and Land Department glossaries. Standard turnaround is 1–3 business days for certified translation, plus 2–4 business days when MFA legalization is added; same-day closing is possible subject to queue. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.
