Practitioner guidance — Embassy legalisation

Competent authority: The destination country's embassy or consulate

Practitioner guidance

  • Some countries have no mission in Thailand and are covered from a neighbouring country — allow for document transit.
  • Commercial documents usually need Board of Trade certification before the embassy stage.
  • Keep copies at every stage; originals stay with the authorities while in process.
  • Confirm which translation language and which translators the embassy accepts.
  • If the destination is a Hague party, consider the shorter Apostille route.

Pitfalls — why documents get rejected

  • Preparing fewer copies than the embassy requires.
  • No prior appointment at an appointment-only mission.
  • Sending documents abroad without trackable delivery.
  • Ignoring destination-country public holidays when planning.
  • Filing at the embassy before MFA legalisation.
