🇫🇯 Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate) → Fijian

When a foreign registrar scans a translated Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate), they are matching specific cells of information against an internal template — the prose only has to faithfully expose those cells in the right order, with the right labels. Administrative units like "ตำบล", "แขวง" and "เขต" carry distinct weight that must surface in Fijian; flattening them into one English word erases the level of authority the foreign registrar is trying to verify.

Issue date should be within 3 months for most overseas authorities. We can collect from DBD and translate within 48 hours.

Our Fijian desk maintains a glossary reconciled against:

• The Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs Department of Consular Affairs
• The Fijian embassy in Bangkok
• Relevant universities, professional bodies, and court systems in Fijian-speaking jurisdictions

Our internal scorecard for Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate) → Fijian tracks first-pass embassy acceptance as the headline KPI, and the rolling twelve-month figure has not dipped below 97% since the pipeline was last re-engineered.

The same eight-step workflow runs on every job — none of the gates are optional and none are bypassed for speed:

1. Document intake. Send us a high-resolution PDF/photo of the original Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate). We verify it is a current Amphur or court-issued copy.
2. Translation into Fijian. Performed by our credentialed MFA-accepted translator on our in-house panel. Names, dates and registration numbers are cross-checked against your passport.
3. Thai MFA legalisation. Our courier files at the Department of Consular Affairs (Chaeng Watthana) the next working day. Standard return: 3–5 working days.
4. Notary Public (if required). One of our six in-house Notarial Services Attorneys notarises the translation, which most embassies require.
5. Delivery. Pickup at our office, courier in Bangkok, EMS across Thailand, or DHL Express to 200+ countries.
6. Company certification. We affix our official translator seal and a signed declaration accepted by Thai MFA.
7. Fijian embassy attestation. We submit to the destination embassy in Bangkok and collect the legalised document.
8. Second-eye QA. A senior reviewer cross-checks every page against the source and flags any name/date inconsistency before the seal is applied.

Plan to assemble a packet, not a single page — the Fijian side will usually expect the translated Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate) to arrive with several of the supporting items listed below.

• Setting up a foreign subsidiary — typically also needs your passport bio page and a recent photo.
• Overseas tender / contract — typically also needs your passport bio page and a recent photo.
• Opening overseas bank account — typically also needs your passport bio page and a recent photo.

Australia requires NAATI-certified translation directly; New Zealand accepts certified translation by NAATI or an NZTC-recognised translator.

For the Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate) specifically, our Fijian desk pays particular attention to:

• Official seals & stamps. Thai stamps and signatures are described in the target language so overseas officers can verify authenticity.
• Name transliteration. Fijian authorities check the translated name against your passport — any mismatch is grounds for rejection.
• Dates & calendars. The Thai Buddhist year (พ.ศ.) must be converted to the Common Era; we provide both formats side-by-side.
• Form codes. Original Thai reference numbers and registration codes are preserved verbatim.
• Officer titles. Registrar, Chief District Officer and District Officer are kept distinct, mapped to whichever term the destination registry uses internally.

Plan on 24–48 hours for the translation gate alone; add the MFA and embassy gates after that. Adding MFA legalisation extends the total to 4–7 working days. Embassy attestation adds another 3–10 working days depending on the destination.

For urgent cases we offer:

• 4-hour rush translation — surcharge of 50–100%.
• 1-day express MFA — additional government fee, file before the 09:30 cut-off.
• Embassy priority queues — available with most embassies in Bangkok at a small handling fee.

For budgeting, the 2-page Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate) on the Fijian pipeline carries the line items below; the case manager confirms the exact total before any gate is touched:

• Translation: ฿1,920 – ฿6,144 (includes company seal & certifying statement, MFA-accepted).
• Notary Public (Notarial Services Attorney): ฿1,500 – ฿4,000 per document if required by the destination.
• Thai MFA legalisation: ฿800 – ฿1,500 per document.
• Fijian embassy attestation: ฿2,500 – ฿12,000 per document depending on embassy.

Final fees vary with page count, urgency (a 4-hour rush carries a 50–100% premium), and whether the embassy requires an extra sworn affidavit. Send a scan via LINE @NYCLI or email nyclegal@ilc.ltd for a fixed quote inside 15 minutes during business hours.

Across the rejected files we see each year, the same five causes account for the vast majority of redo work on a Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate):

• Photocopies submitted instead of originals with attached translation.
• Missing MFA or embassy gate — most Fijian authorities require both, not just one.
• Names spelled differently across passport, Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate) and supporting documents — Fijian authorities require an exact match.
• Translations done by uncertified translators that lack the MFA-accepted seal.
• Out-of-date copies — embassies usually want a Company Affidavit (DBD Certificate) issued within the last 3–6 months.

Treat the table below as the canonical mapping of Thai registry terms into Fijian as applied across every NYC Legal file — overseas reviewers familiar with our work will recognise it immediately:

• Certified translation / คำแปลรับรอง — translation accompanied by a signed declaration of accuracy; required by MFA.
• Embassy attestation / รับรองสถานทูต — the Fijian embassy in Bangkok validates the Thai MFA stamp.
• Notarisation / รับรองโนตารี — a Notarial Services Attorney certifies the translator's signature or the copy; required by some Fijian authorities.
• Transliteration — converting Thai script names into Fijian characters; must match the spelling in your passport.
• MFA legalisation / รับรองกระทรวงการต่างประเทศ — the Department of Consular Affairs authenticates the translator's seal; mandatory for most overseas use.
• Apostille — single-step alternative to MFA+embassy for Hague Convention members (Thailand: not a signatory yet → MFA route applies).
• Sworn translator / ผู้แปลสาบาน — translator officially registered with a foreign court or ministry; relevant for Fijian in some EU jurisdictions.

Structurally we are a law firm with an embedded language-services department, not a language vendor that buys legal advice as needed — the difference is decisive on rejection-risk work. We operate six in-house Notarial Services Attorneys, a panel of more than 200 certified translators across 205 languages, and a dedicated MFA & embassy liaison team that visits the Department of Consular Affairs at Chaeng Watthana every working day.

For the Fijian pair your file is handled by MFA-accepted translator on our in-house panel who is screened on three criteria: native or near-native Fijian command, demonstrated court-grade legal-translation experience, and a clean track record with Thailand's MFA and the relevant embassy. Every translator signs an NDA covering attorney-client privilege.

Concrete reasons clients return

• Rejection insurance. If MFA or the Fijian embassy rejects our work due to a translation defect, we re-file at no charge and absorb the government re-filing fee.
• Single-window service. Translation, Notary, MFA filing, embassy attestation and worldwide courier are booked once — you do not chase three vendors.
• Bilingual case manager. One person handles your file end-to-end; ask questions in Thai, English or via your preferred language.
• Confidentiality by default. Files are encrypted at rest, deleted from working storage 90 days after delivery, and never used as AI training data.
• Fixed-fee quotes within 15 minutes. No surprise charges after the work begins; the LINE quote is the invoice you receive on delivery.
• EN, TH and Fijian support by phone, LINE, WhatsApp, WeChat, KakaoTalk, Telegram and email.

By the time your file has passed through every gate of this pipeline, the destination Fijian counter is being handed exactly the format their internal checklists expect. If the receiving office requests an additional step — for example a sworn translator's signature notarised in the destination country, or a translation re-done into a regional dialect — we provide a follow-up service from our partner network of overseas counsel.

• Affidavit of translation accuracy — a sworn statement signed before a Notary Public in the destination country; we prepare the bilingual template.
• Long-term archiving — your translated and legalised file is archived for 7 years; request a fresh certified copy at any time without re-paying for translation.
• Re-issuance — if the destination retains the original, we keep the certified scan on file and produce another legalised copy on 48-hour turnaround.
• Apostille substitution letter — for receiving authorities that mistakenly request an Apostille (Thailand is not yet a Hague signatory), we provide a notarised explanation letter accepted by most foreign registrars.
