A licence or franchise agreement — what should you know about naati-related requirements?

The case under review is “A licence or franchise agreement”, so it separates what is specific to this file from the standard certification chain. After certification, scan the full set before it leaves your hands. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. High-resolution photos of seals and signatures help when the destination asks for re-verification. Leave buffer time in case a translation has to be amended or a source document re-issued. Documents with a short validity window should be produced as close to the filing date as possible. 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. The deciding factor is the receiving body's requirement, not only the format of the Thai-side document. The condition most often overlooked is that name spelling must match across every document in the set. The terms that frame this page are licence · franchise · agreement · know. The specifics here are document type: Licence, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. Australian authorities, including IP Australia, require non-English documents to carry a translation by a NAATI-certified translator with the certification block, practitioner number and date. Supply high-resolution scans of every page, including pages with seals and renewal endorsements. Thai intellectual-property documents used abroad follow this order: a complete translation, signature certification by a notarial services attorney where the receiver requires it, certification by the Legalisation Division of the Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, then the destination embassy or consulate where required. Confirm the order with the receiving party first — skipping one step means starting again. ILC handles documents only — translation, certified translation, arranging notarial-attorney certification and running legalisation at the Department of Consular Affairs and embassies. It is not a registered IP agent, not a law firm, does not file applications, does not give similarity or novelty opinions and guarantees no decision by DIP, WIPO or IP Australia. Cost and lead time depend on page count, target language, how technical the text is and the certification steps required, so every file is quoted before work starts.
