Legal Context of Eritrea
Eritrea is located in Africa, with official languages TI, AR, EN and ISO code ER. It is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention 1961, so Thai documents destined for Eritrea must undergo Full Legalization via Thailand MFA plus attestation at the Eritrea embassy in Bangkok. Eritrea does not have an embassy in Bangkok — documents are routed through the nearest accredited mission (Singapore, Malaysia, or Indonesia), which ILC handles with tracking.
