In-Depth Guide: Commercial & Corporate Documents

Commercial & Corporate Documents is delivered under iLC's Certified Translation of Thai Government Documents practice, combining MoJ-certified translation, MFA legalization, embassy liaison, and Thai government filing under one project manager. Every case is handled by a NAATI-accredited translator, a Thai Notarial Services Attorney, and a dedicated case coordinator.

Certified translation of Thai civil-registry and government-issued documents is the foundation of virtually every cross-border filing — visa, marriage, adoption, inheritance, insurance, or overseas study. iLC handles the four canonical certification tiers accepted by Thai and foreign authorities: (1) translator-certified copy under the MFA registry, (2) notarial services attorney certification, (3) MFA consular legalization, and (4) foreign embassy attestation. Each document (birth certificate, household registration, marriage certificate, divorce decree, death certificate, name-change order, ID card, driving licence, criminal record, degree) follows a strict template maintained by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and any deviation — including translating a district name incorrectly or omitting a footer serial number — is grounds for automatic rejection. Our production pipeline uses translation memory tuned to the exact MFA glossary released in 2024, so batched files (e.g. an entire family's civil-registry set) retain terminology consistency across every page.

Why choose iLC for Commercial & Corporate Documents

With more than 15 years of practice, iLC covers every embassy in Bangkok and both MFA offices (Chaengwattana and Chiang Mai). We operate a two-tier QA review and refund the service fee if a document is rejected due to a defect in our translation or certification — government fees and officer discretion excluded.

How Commercial & Corporate Documents is Processed

The workflow below reflects current 2025–2026 practice with the relevant Thai authority and factors in queue seasonality, translation dependencies, and cross-agency handoffs.

1) Source review
Confirm the document is current (6-month rule for MFA), legible, and free of superseded stamps.
2) Translation and QA
Registered translator produces the target-language version; a senior QA reviewer cross-checks every proper noun and date.
3) Certification
Translator signs and applies the office seal; notarial attorney counter-signs if required by the destination.
4) MFA legalization
Regular (2 days) or Express (1 day) depending on urgency and embassy calendar.
5) Embassy stamping
Second-tier stamp added for non-Hague destinations.
6) Delivery
Digital scan + physical originals shipped by EMS, DHL, or FedEx.

FAQs about Commercial & Corporate Documents

คำถามที่พบบ่อย

Do you translate into non-English languages?

Yes — Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Spanish, Arabic and more, all with MFA-registered translators.

Can you match my passport spelling?

Yes. We use the exact romanisation on your passport to prevent immigration flags.

Can I request a same-day rush?

Yes, for translation-only jobs; MFA stamping still requires at least the Express 1-day slot.

Are digital-only translations acceptable?

For many purposes yes (e.g. online visa systems); civil-registry filings usually require wet-signature originals.

Documents usually required

Original document plus one clear copy of every page
Copy of the passport or Thai national ID card of the signatory
Written statement of the purpose and the receiving authority
Supporting records the receiving authority lists in its own checklist

Common reasons a bundle is rejected

Confirm which body certifies the translation before work begins; requirements differ by destination.
Keep one glossary per case so names and titles never drift between documents.
Spell every name exactly as it appears in the passport, across every document in the same bundle.

Prefer not to handle the chain yourself? Send the scans and we run every step for you, from translation to the final endorsement.

How the process runs — Certified translation in every language pair

State the purpose and the receiving authority so the correct level of certification is chosen.
Send scans of every page so completeness can be checked before work starts.
Prepare the translation or the instrument in the format the receiving authority requires.
Sign or certify before the officer authorised by law to witness that document type.
Collect the finished set and keep a copy for the next filing.

Fees and processing times are set by each authority and vary by document and destination — confirm them with the responsible agency.

Handling it yourself vs letting iLC run it

Aspect	Doing it yourself	With iLC
Working out which steps apply	You read each authority's rules yourself, and usually learn a step was missing only after the bundle is refused.	Our advisers review the documents before work starts and sequence translation, notarisation, MFA, and embassy in one pass.
Time spent filing	Repeat trips to each office, queueing and collecting in person.	We file on your behalf; you send scans and receive the finished set by post or courier.
Risk that the translation is refused	Agency names, job titles, and the certification wording often do not match what the receiving office accepts.	We use terminology and certificate formats the receiving authority has accepted before, with two-stage proof-reading.
If the bundle is rejected	You diagnose the cause and refile yourself, losing a full cycle.	We identify the cause, correct it, and refile without you starting over, with progress reported along the way.

What clients typically use this for

Official filings in any language pair
Contracts and corporate records
Personal and civil documents

Support continues after delivery

Document work rarely ends with one submission: the receiving authority may request more, or you may need to file again next year. We keep a digital copy set and a record of the certification route used for every job, so the next round starts from the right point, and you can consult us when the destination changes its requirements. Handled by a team with more than 15 years of experience.

The certification route of each job is recorded for the next round.
Guidance when the destination requests additional documents later.
New document sets checked for consistency with what you already filed.
