Cross-service questions, answered by the NYC Legal team
591. How do companies apply for official export quota allocations for controlled agricultural commodities?
Electronic documents must be traceable to their source, so deliverables ship with an audit trail whenever the receiving party asks for one. 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.
403. Which accounting firm provides executive financial reporting in English for foreign management in Thailand?
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. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.
483. Do you provide full-set translation and MFA legalization for a Thai wife applying for foreign citizenship through marriage?
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). Quotations separate government fees from professional fees line by line, so nothing appears on the invoice that was not in the quote.
