Selected from our knowledge base of 3,300+ real questions we have answered.
If a foreign client needs an affidavit of identity for a foreign bank, whether a certified translation is required as well?
Notary Public
Short answer to "If a foreign client needs an affidavit of identity for a foreign bank, whether a certified translation is required as well?" — You must sign in front of the attorney with your original passport; the attorney affixes the notarial seal, signature, register number and date so the document is accepted abroad. The notarised document remains valid indefinitely, but consulates and banks abroad usually accept it only within 3–6 months of issuance. Walk-in and mobile-notary appointments both available — call 094-895-8999 to confirm a slot.

Practitioner guidance — Certification by a Notarial Services Attorney
Competent authority: Lawyers Council of Thailand
Practitioner guidance
✓Thailand has no standalone Notary Public office; certification is performed by a Notarial Services Attorney registered with the Lawyers Council of Thailand.
✓The signatory must sign in front of the attorney and present an original passport or Thai ID card.
✓Bring the complete original document, including blank and stamped pages.
✓Tell the attorney the destination country and authority in advance, since the certification wording differs by use.
✓If the document is for overseas use, plan the next steps (MFA legalisation, Apostille or embassy) from the start.
Pitfalls — why documents get rejected
!A company affidavit older than the destination accepts.
!Foreign-language forms with no translation for the signatory to understand.
!Describing the role as international 'Notary Public' when the Thai system uses a different designation.
!Signing in advance — the attorney cannot certify a signature made out of their presence.
!Presenting a passport copy instead of the original on the day.
Can a Thai notary sign documents that will be used overseas?
Yes. A Notarial Services Attorney registered with the Lawyers Council of Thailand can notarize documents intended for use abroad, after which the document is legalized at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and, if required, at the destination country's embassy.
Do I need an appointment to notarize a document in Bangkok?
Walk-ins are accepted, but booking a 30-minute slot in advance guarantees same-day completion and lets us pre-check that you bring the right identification and any supporting documents.
What ID do I need to bring to a notary appointment?
Bring your original passport (or Thai national ID for Thai nationals); for corporate documents bring the affidavit/board resolution and a copy of the company affidavit issued within the last 90 days.
