Service fee and postage

NAATI translation from Request a quote per page (common documents) up to Request a quote per page (legal). Postage to Saudi Arabia ~ Request a quote. Add-on MFA consular legalization and consulate attestation are billed separately — request a bundled quote anytime.

Online and worldwide delivery

A valid NAATI stamp must show (1) translator's registered name, (2) 7-digit NAATI practitioner number, (3) language pair (e.g. Thai → English), (4) certification level (Certified Translator), and (5) expiry date. Recipients can verify through the NAATI Online Directory at naati.com.au.

Authorities that accept NAATI translations

NAATI Certified Translator is the current standard, replacing the legacy NAATI Professional Translator level. NAATI Recognised Practising Translator applies to language pairs without a Certified exam. For Thai ↔ English we exclusively use Authenticated-level translators to ensure acceptance by every Australian authority.

Add-on: MFA consular and embassy legalization

Before sending, scan or photograph documents at 300 dpi or higher, capturing every stamp and signature. Ensure name spellings match your passport across all documents — if not, prepare a name-change certificate or supporting affidavit.

NAATI Certified vs Recognised vs Endorsed — what each means

Our NAATI Online service handles worldwide intake and dispatch. Overseas clients send scans via email or LINE; we translate, NAATI-certify, send a soft-copy preview, and ship hard copies via DHL / FedEx within 3–7 days.

DHA-mandated documents requiring NAATI translation

Authorities that accept NAATI translations include Department of Home Affairs, Services Australia, Centrelink, Medicare, RMS / VicRoads / TMR / Service SA / Transport WA, every university and CRICOS provider, plus Skill Assessment bodies (VETASSESS, ACS, EA, AHPRA, TRA, CPA Australia).

Shipping NAATI translations to Australia and accepting countries

If documents are also bound for jurisdictions requiring Apostille or Consulate Legalization, we offer one-stop service — NAATI translation + MFA consular legalization (Department of Consular Affairs) + consular post attestation — with no need to travel between offices.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is a Statutory Declaration and does it need translation?
It's a sworn statement used heavily in Partner Visa applications. If drafted in Thai, it must be NAATI-translated before submission to DoHA.
Can I use a Ministry of Justice translator instead of NAATI?
Acceptable for Thai court use, but Australia's DoHA strictly requires NAATI Certified translators.
Can I drive in Australia with a Thai license?
Yes within the first 3 months — carry the original plus a NAATI translation. Conversion to a state license also requires NAATI.
Why does Skill Assessment require NAATI?
Assessing authorities (VETASSESS, ACS, EA) require academic and employment evidence in English certified by an accredited translator.
Why doesn't DHA accept generic translators?
NAATI is the Australian government's professional accreditation body. Accepting unaccredited translators would compromise document integrity.
NAATI vs Sworn Translator — what's the difference?
NAATI applies in the Commonwealth and Australia; Sworn Translators are the Civil Law equivalent used in Europe and Latin America. Different systems.
How long does NAATI translation take?
Standard 1–2 business days for 1–3 pages. Same-day rush or a few-hour emergency turnaround is available.
How much does NAATI cost?
From Request a quote per page for common documents, up to Request a quote per page for legal or large transcripts.
Do I need to send the original?
NAATI translators can work from a high-quality scan; the certification clarifies whether it was made from a true copy or original.
Does DoHA accept translations done in Thailand?
Yes — provided the translator is NAATI Certified and the stamp / details are complete.

  • Translator credential numbers can be verified on NAATI's public register

  • Requirements differ by receiving agency — confirm before ordering

Additional frequently asked questions

Which Australian bodies require it?
Most commonly the Department of Home Affairs, state road authorities such as VicRoads, universities and colleges, state registries of births, deaths and marriages, and professional skills-assessment bodies. Requirements vary by body.
Does a NAATI translation need further legalisation?
Australian bodies generally accept the certified translator's stamp without embassy involvement, though other legal proceedings may call for additional certification case by case.
Which languages and documents are covered?
Thai–English is the most requested pair, alongside other pairs with certified practitioners. Typical documents are birth certificates, house registration, marriage certificates, driving licences, transcripts and police clearance certificates. Scope and requirements are confirmed case by case by phone, LINE or email.
Are original documents required?
Clear scans of every page — including seals and reverse-side text — are normally sufficient. If the receiving body asks to sight originals, the applicant must bring them on the filing day.
What file format is delivered?
Usually a PDF bearing the certified translator's stamp and signature with the practitioner number and certification validity details that NAATI requires to be displayed.
What if the name spelling differs from the passport?
The passport spelling governs. Where the source document spells it differently, the translator adds an explanatory note so the reviewing officer can link the records.

How this connects to the next step

Australian agencies accept only NAATI translations, yet originals such as powers of attorney still need Thai attorney notarial certification first; partner and skilled visa files usually run in parallel with a Thai police clearance certificate.

In depth: the real requirements and why documents get rejectedNAATI

Written from the competent authority's published rules, not marketing copy.

The documents most often handled under NAATI requirements are house registrations, birth certificates, marriage certificates, name-change records, academic transcripts, and police clearance certificates — each with its own points of scrutiny.

Conditions you actually have to clear

  • Every page and every element of the original must be covered, including pages that carry only a seal.
  • Most Australian authorities accept digitally signed translations, though some matters still call for a printed set.
  • Names must match the passport used for filing; where the original differs, the translator's note must explain the discrepancy.

Common causes of rejection

  • Translating only the pages containing text and omitting seal-only or numbered blank pages.
  • A signed direction that does not match the certified direction, for example certifying Thai to English while signing an English to Thai job.

The lowest-risk approach is to confirm whether the receiving authority wants a digital or printed set, and to prepare complete, sharp images of every page before work starts. Send the details to our team by phone, LINE, or email for review.

Before you start

  • Always confirm the receiving body's own formatting rules — requirements differ between institutions.

Practitioner guidanceNAATI certified translation

Competent authority: NAATI — National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters, Australia

Practitioner guidance

  • Verify that the CPN printed on the translation is searchable in NAATI's verification system.
  • Assemble the full document set before ordering so names, dates and terminology stay consistent.
  • Third-country, non-English documents can also be translated into English under the NAATI system without routing through the issuing country.
  • Turnaround is approximately 5–7 working days depending on page count and language pair — confirm before fixing a lodgement date.
  • Documents filed with Australian authorities must be translated by a NAATI-certified translator, with the NAATI stamp and CPN visible on the translation.

Pitfalls — why documents get rejected

  • Assuming NAATI certifies visa outcomes — it certifies translator credentials only.
  • Filing an MFA-certified translation with an Australian authority that requires NAATI.
  • A translation without a NAATI stamp or without a verifiable CPN.
  • Submitting the translation without the source copy it references.
  • Name spelling differing from the passport used in the visa application.
