ประเด็นสำคัญที่ต้องรู้

คำถามที่พบบ่อย

What do you need to start Notary?
A photo or scan of the original plus the destination country and receiving authority. We review it free of charge and reply with the shortest valid routing.
Do I have to visit the office?
No. Send originals by EMS or book a Bangkok pickup; completed documents are returned by domestic post or international courier.
Will the Notary result be accepted abroad?
It depends on the destination. Hague Convention member states accept an apostille directly; non-member states need an additional embassy legalization step.
What does the Notary fee include?
Professional service fee, government fees at official rates, domestic EMS, and international courier where applicable — each listed separately in the quote.

Notary

With "Notary", the outcome is decided by certification order rather than translation alone. We map the full Notary Public Services in Thailand routing before anything is filed, so the chain holds at the destination office. We handle files from Bangkok, upcountry, and overseas clients working through a power of attorney. Every matter has one named owner, with a Notarial Services Attorney (registered with the Lawyers Council of Thailand) performing the final certification review before release. The written quote lists the professional fee, official government rates with no markup, and shipping at cost — no hidden extras — under either a standard 5-7 business day or a rush 1-3 business day schedule.

Decision Tree

ประเทศปลายทางเป็นสมาชิก Hague Apostille?
Yes → ยังต้องรับรอง MFA ก่อน (ไทยยังไม่ใช่ภาคี — ทำ Legalization chain แทน Apostille)
No → ทำ Notary → MFA → สถานทูตปลายทาง
เอกสารเป็นสำเนา (copy) หรือต้นฉบับ?
Yes → ใช้ 'Certified True Copy' notarization
No → ใช้ 'Signature Witnessing' หรือ 'Affidavit' notarization
ต้องใช้ภาษาอังกฤษที่ปลายทาง?
Yes → แปลก่อน → นักแปลรับรอง → Notary รับรองลายมือชื่อนักแปล
No → Notary ต้นฉบับภาษาไทยได้ แต่ปลายทางอาจขอแปล
