Certified translation of the shareholder list (form Bor.Or.Jor.5) for a business in Samut Prakan — how does it work?

The matter being asked about is “Certified translation of the shareholder list (form Bor.Or.Jor.5) for a business in Samut Prakan”, so it flags what usually causes documents like this to be rejected before summarising the general practice. The specifics here are document type: Shareholder; location: Samutprakan, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. The terms that frame this page are Certified · translation · shareholder · list. A key variable is the filing channel (in person, agent or online), which sets the copy format to prepare. What sets this case apart is the number of certified sets and the window in which they must be used. Before starting, confirm with the receiving body whether it wants an original, a certified copy or a certified translation, then check that names are spelled identically to the passport or ID card on every page, then verify the source document is still within any validity window the recipient applies. Plan the schedule with room for at least one review cycle at the receiving office. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. 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. Licensing turns on eligibility conditions that must be proved with that authority's own documents. When filing for a company, attach current evidence of signing authority. After filing, follow up on the cycle the office states rather than waiting past the deadline. A Thai corporate document used overseas is normally translated in full — including seals and signatures — then the translation is certified by the Legalisation Division, Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and finally by the destination country's embassy or consulate where that country requires it. Thailand is not a party to the 1961 Apostille Convention, so no apostille is issued for Thai documents. Company formation in Thailand runs under the Civil and Commercial Code for partnerships and private limited companies, and the Public Limited Companies Act B.E. 2535 for public companies. The registrar is the Department of Business Development (DBD) at the Ministry of Commerce, which issues the company affidavit. When a foreign counterparty or authority asks for proof of existence, use the registrar-issued affidavit rather than a copy the company printed itself. ILC handles the document side: translation, certification of the translation, assembling the set against the authority's checklist, and coordinating the MFA and embassy steps. ILC is not counsel of record for a licence application, gives no legal ruling, and cannot guarantee how a licensing authority will decide. Cost and lead time depend on page count, target language, how many certified sets are required and the steps the receiving authority sets, so every file is quoted before work starts.
