Certified translation of a secondary-school record (Por Por 1) for a credential evaluation in Surat Thani — how does it work?

What the enquirer needs to know is “Certified translation of a secondary-school record (Por Por 1) for a credential evaluation in Surat Thani”, so it flags what usually causes documents like this to be rejected before summarising the general practice. If multiple certified sets are needed, order them all in the first round to avoid re-queuing. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. Keep a copy of every source document plus the receipt or docket from each step. The next step is confirming the filing channel and the copy or file format required. The specifics here are document type: School; location: Suratthani, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. The terms that frame this page are Certified · translation · secondary-school · record. Check first whether the issuing office of the source document is one the destination recognises. The common failure in this group of cases is a translation that does not match the certification type required. Before starting, make sure document numbers, issue dates and issuing-office names match across the set, then keep a digital copy of every page, including seals and signatures, then plan the timeline so certification finishes before the real filing deadline. Most evaluation bodies do not accept documents forwarded by the applicant. They require the issuing institution to send the transcript and proof of completion directly, either in an envelope sealed and stamped across the flap or through an electronic channel the body accepts. Ask the university registrar for the official set first, then prepare the translation alongside it in the format the body specifies. A Thai-issued academic document used by a foreign body normally follows the same order: obtain the official document from the issuing institution, translate it in full including every seal and signature, then have the translation certified by the Legalisation Division, Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and where the receiving body requires it, by that country's embassy or consulate afterwards. Thailand is not a party to the Apostille Convention, so no apostille is issued on Thai documents. If the records are lost, ask the issuing institution's registrar to reissue them first — evaluation bodies accept only institution-certified records. If the institution has closed or merged, ask the supervising body which office now holds the register: the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation for higher education, or the local education service area office for school-level records. Cost and lead time depend on page count, target language, how many certified sets are needed and the steps the receiving evaluation body sets, so every file is quoted before work starts.
