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

375. Does your agency offer a complete package: BOI application, company registration, Non-B visas, and work permits for foreign experts?

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. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.

260. Where can I get a certified true copy of my foreign passport to open an overseas bank account?

Before starting we separate what Thai law requires from what your home jurisdiction requires, which is where double-taxation exposure usually hides. 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.

343. Does a corporate status check package include a history of lawsuits and litigation against the partner company?

Tax and land-registry documents carry terminology that cannot be paraphrased, so we work from Revenue Department and Land Department glossaries. One coordinator owns the matter end to end and reports progress by LINE or email at the intervals you set. Talk to the NYC Legal team on any business day — you get a working plan, not a generic price list.

327. Where to rent wireless tour guide systems with headsets for a factory tour in the automotive industry?

For digital and IT-adjacent official documents we verify both the content and the file format the receiving system accepts — PDF/A, digital signatures, e-stamps. 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.

428. Can a lawyer negotiate bank debt restructuring and compromise agreements for struggling foreign businesses in Thailand?

Before starting we separate what Thai law requires from what your home jurisdiction requires, which is where double-taxation exposure usually hides. 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.

448. Can I hire a lawyer to draft Terms of Use and PDPA policies for a mobile application with global users?

Cross-border wills and estates must be read against the destination jurisdiction, and we coordinate local counsel where that is required. 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.

362. Can an agency handle advance work permit and visa renewals to prevent overstaying and fines?

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. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.

587. How do companies register commercial vehicle fleets and obtain cross-border transport permits within ASEAN?

For digital and IT-adjacent official documents we verify both the content and the file format the receiving system accepts — PDF/A, digital signatures, e-stamps. 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.

325. Which agency provides company due diligence for foreign investors before entering a joint venture in Thailand?

Filings for regulators are certified to the tier the regulator specifies, not the tier that happens to be familiar. 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.

440. How strictly must a BOI company separate its revenue accounts to maintain corporate income tax exemptions?

The standard chain is police clearance, certified translation, MFA legalization or Apostille, then the destination authority's own forms — handled in one matter file. Quotations separate government fees from professional fees line by line, so nothing appears on the invoice that was not in the quote.
