For Thai documents to be legally recognised abroad, they typically need to go through a legalisation process:
- 01NotarisationThe document is notarised by a certified Notarial Services Attorney in Thailand.
- 02MFA LegalisationThe notarised document is legalised by the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), which authenticates the notary's signature and seal.
- 03Embassy AuthenticationThe legalised document is then authenticated by the embassy or consulate of the country where it will be used.
