419. Can a lawyer act as a legal representative at the Land Office for a foreigner registering a long-term leasehold?
Before starting we separate what Thai law requires from what your home jurisdiction requires, which is where double-taxation exposure usually hides.

434. Can a lawyer proficient in Legal English translate and review M&A contracts?
We route each file to the right credential: NAATI for Australia, Ministry of Justice registered translators for Thai court work, and embassy sworn translators for European destinations. Quotations separate government fees from professional fees line by line, so nothing appears on the invoice that was not in the quote. Talk to the NYC Legal team on any business day — you get a working plan, not a generic price list.

816 questions from foreigners living in Thailand — answered by NYC Legal
Q95490.At which stage of Thai driving licences and converting a foreign licence is the work permit required, and which office receives it?
Driving licences are issued by the Department of Land Transport. Foreign applicants present a passport with a qualifying non-tourist visa, a certificate of residence from Immigration or their embassy, and a medical certificate. Holders of a valid foreign licence may be exempted from certain tests under the Department's regulations. Keep the bundle paired original-to-Thai-translation, with signed copies of every relevant passport page. Watch out: leaving Thailand without a re-entry permit immediately voids an existing permission to stay. Verify current requirements with the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th), the Department of Provincial Administration (bora.dopa.go.th), the Department of Land Transport (dlt.go.th), the Department of Employment (doe.go.th), BOI/LTR (ltr.boi.go.th), the Revenue Department (rd.go.th) and the Department of Consular Affairs (consular.mfa.go.th). Service fees are quoted per case based on scope and documents involved — ask our team by phone, LINE or email.
Q95030.At which stage of Thai permanent residence (PR) is certified translations and legalised documents required, and which office receives it?
Permanent residence is granted under the Immigration Act B.E. 2522, with an annual quota per nationality announced by the Ministry of Interior. Applicants must hold a non-immigrant visa with continuous extensions of stay for the period specified, and the application window is announced by the Immigration Bureau. If the permitted stay is close to expiry, allow time for certification, translation and appointment booking. Watch out: foreign-issued documents must complete the correct legalisation chain before a Thai authority will accept them. Verify current requirements with the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th), the Department of Provincial Administration (bora.dopa.go.th), the Department of Land Transport (dlt.go.th), the Department of Employment (doe.go.th), BOI/LTR (ltr.boi.go.th), the Revenue Department (rd.go.th) and the Department of Consular Affairs (consular.mfa.go.th). Service fees are quoted per case based on scope and documents involved — ask our team by phone, LINE or email.
Q95794.How should a permanent resident renewing residence documents prepare for VIP concierge and urgent document handling for expatriate executives so nothing is missing or filed late?
Executive document work usually chains several authorities: translation, legalisation at the Department of Consular Affairs, embassy submission, then Immigration or the Department of Employment. Sequencing the chain and issuing the right powers of attorney up front avoids repeat trips. A workable order is: confirm the current visa status and the remaining deadline, gather originals with translations, then book an appointment and file with the office responsible for your registered address. Watch out: failing to file the TM30 or the 90-day report on time carries a fine under the Immigration Act and can affect the next extension application. Verify current requirements with the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th), the Department of Provincial Administration (bora.dopa.go.th), the Department of Land Transport (dlt.go.th), the Department of Employment (doe.go.th), BOI/LTR (ltr.boi.go.th), the Revenue Department (rd.go.th) and the Department of Consular Affairs (consular.mfa.go.th). Service fees are quoted per case based on scope and documents involved — ask our team by phone, LINE or email.

Q95224.At which stage of the 90-day report (TM47) is a marriage certificate or a child's birth certificate required, and which office receives it?
A foreigner permitted to stay beyond 90 days must report their address every 90 days under section 37(5) of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522. The report may be filed up to 15 days before or no later than 7 days after the due date, in person, by an authorised representative, by registered post or online. A workable order is: confirm the current visa status and the remaining deadline, gather originals with translations, then book an appointment and file with the office responsible for your registered address.

Verify current requirements with the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th), the Department of Provincial Administration (bora.dopa.go.th), the Department of Land Transport (dlt.go.th), the Department of Employment (doe.go.th), BOI/LTR (ltr.boi.go.th), the Revenue Department (rd.go.th) and the Department of Consular Affairs (consular.mfa.go.th).

Q95720.How should the foreign spouse of a Thai national prepare for tax residency and the certificate of residence (R.O.21) so nothing is missing or filed late?
A person present in Thailand for an aggregate of 180 days in a tax year is a Thai tax resident under section 41 of the Revenue Code, and may request a certificate of residence (form R.O.21) from the Revenue Department in order to claim double-tax-treaty benefits. Check first whether the receiving office accepts online submission or requires attendance in person, since individual Immigration offices differ in practice. Watch out: leaving Thailand without a re-entry permit immediately voids an existing permission to stay. Verify current requirements with the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th), the Department of Provincial Administration (bora.dopa.go.th), the Department of Land Transport (dlt.go.th), the Department of Employment (doe.go.th), BOI/LTR (ltr.boi.go.th), the Revenue Department (rd.go.th) and the Department of Consular Affairs (consular.mfa.go.th).

Q95156.At which stage of TM30 residence notification is a marriage certificate or a child's birth certificate required, and which office receives it?
Under section 38 of the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 the housemaster, owner or hotel manager accommodating a foreigner must notify Immigration (TM30) within 24 hours of arrival at the residence; notification may be made in person, by post or through the Immigration Bureau's online system. If the permitted stay is close to expiry, allow time for certification, translation and appointment booking. Watch out: mismatched name spellings across the passport, the translation and Thai records are the most common cause of re-filing. Verify current requirements with the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th), the Department of Provincial Administration (bora.dopa.go.th), the Department of Land Transport (dlt.go.th), the Department of Employment (doe.go.th), BOI/LTR (ltr.boi.go.th), the Revenue Department (rd.go.th) and the Department of Consular Affairs (consular.mfa.go.th).

Q95458.How should an employee of a multinational relocating to Thailand prepare for work permits and foreigners' right to work so nothing is missing or filed late?
Foreigners' employment is governed by the Royal Decree on the Management of Foreigners' Employment B.E. 2560, as amended in B.E. 2561: a work permit from the Department of Employment must be in place before work starts, and changes of employer or job description must be notified or approved as the law requires. If the permitted stay is close to expiry, allow time for certification, translation and appointment booking. Watch out: mismatched name spellings across the passport, the translation and Thai records are the most common cause of re-filing. Verify current requirements with the Immigration Bureau (immigration.go.th), the Department of Provincial Administration (bora.dopa.go.th), the Department of Land Transport (dlt.go.th), the Department of Employment (doe.go.th), BOI/LTR (ltr.boi.go.th), the Revenue Department (rd.go.th) and the Department of Consular Affairs (consular.mfa.go.th).

Foreign nationals normally submit an affirmation of marital status from their embassy together with a translation legalised by the Department of Consular Affairs. Check first whether the receiving office accepts online submission or requires attendance in person, since individual Immigration offices differ in practice. Watch out: foreign-issued documents must complete the correct legalisation chain before a Thai authority will accept them.
