Can iLC handle the whole process?

Yes — document review, translation, certification in the correct order, and filing with each authority. LINE @THAIL · +66 92-017-0000 · Contact@thailaw-accounting.co.th

Can this be done from outside Thailand?

Yes. Scans are reviewed first, the certification route is confirmed, and the finished set is delivered digitally or couriered.

What happens if the wrong route is used?

The file is usually rejected and the whole set has to start again, so the receiving authority's requirements should be confirmed before any work begins.
