Issuance at the Royal College + TMC takes 5-14 working days with a government fee of 500 บาท/ฉบับ. NYC Legal handles the entire request under power of attorney.
The document is then translated into the destination language by a registrar-listed translator, legalised at the MFA, and either Apostilled or attested at the relevant embassy — or uploaded directly to EPIC, Dataflow or physiciansapply.ca.
