ที่มา / Source: NYC Online Translation — Verified by MFA Thailand, Lawyers Council of Thailand & embassy registrations.
Thai government-document legalisation service for "Medical Certificate (with MCT authentication)" issued by Hospital + Medical Council of Thailand. NYC Legal handles the complete chain: sourcing fresh certified copies, certified translation, MFA (Consular Department) legalisation, and either Apostille (for 125 Hague-Convention countries since 15 May 2024) or destination-embassy attestation. Turnaround 5-7 วันทำการ + embassy queue. In business since 2013, operated by registered notarial-services attorneys and MFA-listed translators.
Medical Certificate (with MCT authentication) is issued by Hospital + Medical Council of Thailand and accepted domestically without further step. To be recognised abroad it must run through a legalisation chain because foreign authorities cannot verify Thai officials' seals and signatures directly.
The chain has three tiers: (1) certified translation by MFA-registered translator, (2) MFA Consular Department authentication of the translator's and issuer's signatures, (3) either Apostille (Hague 1961 — 125 countries since 15 May 2024) or destination-embassy attestation. Total turnaround averages 5-7 วันทำการ + 3-14 working days for the embassy queue where applicable.
Common use cases: Work visa medical, PR medical clearance, Retirement visa. NYC Legal frequently handles bundled cases — e.g. birth certificate + house registration + marriage certificate together — at a package rate that saves ~30-40% versus separate filings.

2026 note: Since 15 May 2024 Thailand is a full Hague Apostille member. Documents with MFA Apostille are accepted directly in 125+ countries without further embassy step (USA, UK, Japan, Korea, Germany, France, Australia, Hong Kong). Countries still requiring embassy attestation: China (until Feb 2024), Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, etc.

Example: a Thai client marrying a German national and relocating to Germany needs 4 documents legalised (birth cert, marriage cert, house reg, single-status cert) with German translation + MFA + German Embassy. NYC Legal delivers this as one bundled package, cutting elapsed time by ~40% versus filing individually.
