A skills assessment for a skilled visa in the United Kingdom — what translation and certification is expected?

The scope of this answer is “A skills assessment for a skilled visa in the United Kingdom”, so it covers both the requirements attached to this document set and the order the steps must follow. The specifics here are purpose: Skillsassess; destination: Uk, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. The terms that frame this page are skills · assessment · skilled · visa. The common failure in this group of cases is a translation that does not match the certification type required. What changes the timeline most here is whether the source documents are complete on day one. Before starting, check that names are spelled identically to the passport or ID card on every page, then confirm with the receiving body whether it wants an original, a certified copy or a certified translation, then count the number of certified sets needed before work starts, because extra sets restart the certification steps. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. Plan the schedule with room for at least one review cycle at the receiving office. High-resolution photos of seals and signatures help when the destination asks for re-verification. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. Once the set is complete, check it line by line against the destination's own checklist before filing. 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. An employment or fund document issued abroad for use in Thailand is first certified under the system of the issuing country, then legalised by the Royal Thai Embassy or Consulate there, and afterwards translated into Thai with the translation certified by the Department of Consular Affairs where the Thai receiving body requires it. That receiving body decides whether originals, certified copies or a given number of translation sets are needed. 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.
