FAQ
- Does the document need translation first?
- Yes — MFA only accepts Thai originals or foreign documents translated into Thai. If not yet translated, iLC bundles translation + certification + MFA in a single package.
- What is the government fee?
- THB 200 per page for normal service (bundled into the THB 1,500–2,500 package). No hidden charges.
- Do I need the original document?
- Yes — MFA rejects photocopies. Only originals or government-reissued copies are accepted.
- Can I file at a destination embassy right after MFA?
- Yes — MFA is step 1, the destination embassy is step 2. iLC offers embassy filing SKUs (ILC-CON-004 to 006).
- What if MFA rejects my document on formatting?
- iLC coordinates corrections under our service policy; you only pay the new government re-fee at the authority's current rate.
- Can I use this from outside Bangkok?
- Yes — courier your documents to iLC; nationwide return delivery is THB 100.

Documents usually required
- Freshly issued original Thai civil or corporate record from the issuing office
- Complete English translation of every page, with the translator's statement of accuracy
- Copy of the document holder's passport or Thai national ID card
- Power of attorney with ID copies of both parties if someone else files on your behalf
Common reasons a bundle is rejected
- Countries outside the Apostille Convention still need a further endorsement at the destination embassy.
- Translations that use an unofficial English name for a Thai agency are sent back for correction.
- Spell every name exactly as it appears in the passport, across every document in the same bundle.
Prefer not to handle the chain yourself? Send the scans and we run every step for you, from translation to the final endorsement.
How the process runs — Legalization at the Department of Consular Affairs
- Obtain a freshly issued original from the office that produced the record and check that every page is present.
- Prepare a complete translation with the translator's statement of accuracy attached.
- File for legalization at the Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with the original and the translation together.
- Complete the next certification layer required by the destination country — Apostille, or legalization at that country's embassy in Thailand.
- Collect the finished bundle, scan a full copy for your records, then submit it in the format the receiving authority specifies.
Fees and processing times are set by each authority and vary by document and destination — confirm them with the responsible agency.
Handling it yourself vs letting iLC run it
| Aspect | Doing it yourself | With iLC |
|---|---|---|
| Working out which steps apply | You read each authority's rules yourself, and usually learn a step was missing only after the bundle is refused. | Our advisers review the documents before work starts and sequence translation, notarisation, MFA, and embassy in one pass. |
| Time spent filing | Repeat trips to each office, queueing and collecting in person. | We file on your behalf; you send scans and receive the finished set by post or courier. |
| Risk that the translation is refused | Agency names, job titles, and the certification wording often do not match what the receiving office accepts. | We use terminology and certificate formats the receiving authority has accepted before, with two-stage proof-reading. |
| If the bundle is rejected | You diagnose the cause and refile yourself, losing a full cycle. | We identify the cause, correct it, and refile without you starting over, with progress reported along the way. |
