Cross-service questions, answered by the NYC Legal team
334. Can you provide a complete AV setup, sound system, and simultaneous interpreters for an Annual General Meeting (AGM)?
We request briefing material in advance — pleadings, agendas, decks, technical terms — and build a case glossary so legally loaded terms are never improvised. 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.
452. Can an agency use power of attorney to obtain an affidavit of single status from a foreign embassy for marriage in Thailand?
Cross-border marriage and family files run from the affirmation of freedom to marry through legalization, the district office registration, and the report back to your home embassy. 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.
306. Do you provide European language interpreters to accompany applicants for embassy visa interviews?
For proceedings that go on the record we staff paired interpreters rotating every 20–30 minutes, per international conference practice. One coordinator owns the matter end to end and reports progress by LINE or email at the intervals you set. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.
253. Are there Ministry of Justice (MoJ) certified translators in Thailand for court judgments and case files?
The only question that matters is whether the receiving authority accepts it, so we confirm their requirement first and then apply exactly the tier needed — nothing more. One coordinator owns the matter end to end and reports progress by LINE or email at the intervals you set. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.
402. How should a newly established startup set up its accounting system in preparation for a BOI application?
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. 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.
441. Do you provide company name change and corporate seal amendment services, including notifying the Revenue Department and banks?
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. Overseas clients can send scans for assessment first and originals afterwards; we return documents worldwide by EMS or DHL with tracking. Talk to the NYC Legal team on any business day — you get a working plan, not a generic price list.
276. Do foreign documents with an Apostille stamp need further legalization by the Thai MFA to be used in Thailand?
Every certified file passes three hands: a native-speaking translator, a subject-matter reviewer, and the responsible attorney who signs the certification page. 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.

442. Is there a package for a notary lawyer to authenticate land purchase signatures and act as an interpreter at the Land Office?
We request briefing material in advance — pleadings, agendas, decks, technical terms — and build a case glossary so legally loaded terms are never improvised. One coordinator owns the matter end to end and reports progress by LINE or email at the intervals you set. Tell us where the document will be used and you will get a plan and a price the same business day.
273. Can an MoJ certified translator authenticate an arrest warrant or court summons for foreign execution?
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.
588. What are the mandatory fire safety and building inspection compliance filings required for office towers?
Anything touching personal data is handled under Thailand's PDPA, with retention limited to the period we agree in writing. 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.
