FAQ — Chiang Rai Province

Q. Do you handle embassy attestation after MFA legalisation?

Yes. We submit, queue, and collect at all 40+ embassies in Bangkok — including UK, US, Schengen states, Australia, Japan, China, UAE, and Saudi Arabia — and return the fully chained file to you.

Q. Can I get a fixed quote before sending originals?

Absolutely. Send a clear photo or PDF via LINE @NYCLI; we reply with a fixed THB price, turnaround, and the embassy or authority path within fifteen minutes during business hours.

Q. Is the certification you issue accepted by the Thai MFA?

Yes. Our company is listed in the Department of Consular Affairs translator registry, so MFA legalisation accepts our translations directly without a re-verification step.

Q. What if the document fails embassy acceptance?

We re-do the certification at no extra charge if the rejection stems from a translation, notarisation, or legalisation error on our side. Embassy policy changes outside our control are quoted transparently.
