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
- Several European authorities accept only a translator sworn before their own courts.
- Confirm the accepted route before translating, to avoid paying twice.
- Spell every name exactly as it appears in the passport, across every document in the same bundle.

How the process runs — Sworn translator certification for European authorities
- 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. |
What clients typically use this for

Support continues after delivery
Document work rarely ends with one submission: the receiving authority may request more, or you may need to file again next year. We keep a digital copy set and a record of the certification route used for every job, so the next round starts from the right point, and you can consult us when the destination changes its requirements. Handled by a team with more than 15 years of experience.
- The certification route of each job is recorded for the next round.
- Guidance when the destination requests additional documents later.
- New document sets checked for consistency with what you already filed.
