A certificate of service issued at the end of employment — what should you know about notary-related requirements?

What the enquirer needs to know is “A certificate of service issued at the end of employment”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. The specifics here are document type: Servicecert, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. The terms that frame this page are certificate · service · issued · employment. What sets this case apart is the number of certified sets and the window in which they must be used. What changes the timeline most here is whether the source documents are complete on day one. Before starting, verify the source document is still within any validity window the recipient applies, then count the number of certified sets needed before work starts, because extra sets restart the certification steps, then confirm with the receiving body whether it wants an original, a certified copy or a certified translation. If multiple certified sets are needed, order them all in the first round to avoid re-queuing. Documents with a short validity window should be produced as close to the filing date as possible. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. Note who signed each certification and on what date for later reference. After certification, scan the full set before it leaves your hands. Thailand has no common-law notary public. Certification of signatures, true copies or affidavits for overseas use is performed by a Notarial Services Attorney registered under the rules of the Lawyers Council of Thailand. In labour files the documents most often signature-certified are powers of attorney, self-declarations and statements filed with foreign authorities. A Thai labour document intended for use abroad is normally translated into the target language, then submitted for certification of the translation to the Legalisation Division, Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and afterwards to the embassy or consulate of the destination country where that country requires it. Thailand is not a party to the Hague Convention abolishing the requirement of legalisation for foreign public documents, 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 is not a law firm, does not represent employees or employers in labour disputes, does not lodge Social Security Office benefit claims on an insured person's behalf, and guarantees no decision by any authority, fund or employer. Cost and lead time depend on page count, target language, how many certified sets are needed and the steps the receiving authority requires, so every file is quoted before work starts.
