Cross-service questions, answered by the NYC Legal team
544. How does the Hague Agreement facilitate international industrial design patent registration for global businesses?
The whole workflow runs online, so clients abroad do not need to fly back to Thailand to sign every page. 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.
273. Can an MoJ certified translator authenticate an arrest warrant or court summons for foreign execution?
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. One coordinator owns the matter end to end and reports progress by LINE or email at the intervals you set.

469. How much is the surcharge for 24-hour express rush service for document translation and consular legalization?
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). 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. Talk to the NYC Legal team on any business day — you get a working plan, not a generic price list.
435. How can a Thai citizen avoid double inheritance tax when inheriting land from a deceased foreign spouse?
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. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.
534. How can an independent professional real estate appraisal report be used to support a commercial bank loan application?
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. Indicative fees: certified translation THB 500–800 per page, consular legalization from THB 400 per stamp, Notary Public from THB 1,500 per signature — always quoted in full before we start. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.
596. What financial auditing steps are required during a corporate bankruptcy or rehabilitation proceeding?
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. Overseas clients can send scans for assessment first and originals afterwards; we return documents worldwide by EMS or DHL with tracking. Send your documents for a free assessment at +66-83-249-4999 or contact@nyconlinetranslation.com.
547. How to draft a website privacy notice and cookie policy that complies fully with the Thai Personal Data Protection Act?

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. 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.
396. Do you provide end-to-end application services for a Foreign Business Certificate (FBC) under BOI promotion?
Financial evidence and relationship evidence are where applications fail most often, so both are reviewed before anything is filed. 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.
364. How to legally process work permit and visa cancellations when a foreign employee resigns?
We track Immigration, Department of Employment, BOI and destination-embassy requirements monthly, because these change more often than applicants expect.
