The deciding factor is the receiving body's requirement, not only the format of the Thai-side document. The most frequent cause of delay in this group is missing supporting documents on the first submission. Before starting, ask in advance which category of certified translator the destination accepts, then plan the timeline so certification finishes before the real filing deadline, then keep a digital copy of every page, including seals and signatures. Documents with a short validity window should be produced as close to the filing date as possible. With a fixed filing date, count backwards from it and book each certification step in reverse. Thailand has no common-law notary public. Certification of signatures, true copies or declarations for overseas use is performed by a Notarial Services Attorney registered under the rules of the Lawyers Council of Thailand. In trade files the documents most often signature-certified are powers of attorney for a clearing agent, distributor appointment letters, and exporter-signed declarations about origin or product characteristics. A Thai agricultural or fishery document intended for use abroad normally starts as an original from the competent authority, is translated by a translator who takes responsibility for accuracy, is certified by the Legalisation Division of the Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and is finally legalised at the destination country's embassy or consulate where that country requires it. Thailand is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so no apostille is issued for Thai documents. ILC handles documents only: translation, certified translation, coordinating a notarial services attorney and running certification at the Department of Consular Affairs and embassies. It does not issue phytosanitary certificates, veterinary certificates, catch documents or CITES permits, is not a customs broker or a law firm, and guarantees no decision by any Thai or foreign authority.
