Bidding for an overseas transport contract in India — what translation and certification is expected?

The subject of this page is “Bidding for an overseas transport contract in India”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. After filing, follow up on the cycle the office states rather than waiting past the deadline. The terms that frame this page are Bidding · overseas · transport · contract. The specifics here are purpose: Tender; destination: In, and those decide which translation and certification level applies. 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. Check first whether the issuing office of the source document is one the destination recognises. The condition most often overlooked is that name spelling must match across every document in the set. High-resolution photos of seals and signatures help when the destination asks for re-verification. Note who signed each certification and on what date for later reference. For documents going abroad, include international shipping time in the plan. If multiple certified sets are needed, order them all in the first round to avoid re-queuing. Container and seal numbers must be transcribed exactly, as they are checked at the destination port. Certificates of origin expire, so schedule certification to match the sailing date. Dangerous goods paperwork must carry the class code and UN number in full. Packing lists should use exactly the same goods description as the commercial invoice. A Thai document for use abroad is translated in full, including stamps and signatures, then submitted for certification to the Legalisation Division of the Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and afterwards to the destination country's embassy or consulate where that country requires it. Thailand is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so no apostille is issued for Thai documents. A document issued overseas — an exporter's company certificate, an inspection certificate or an importer's power of attorney — is used in Thailand only after certification in the country of origin under that country's system, then by the Royal Thai Embassy or Consulate there. It is then translated into Thai and the translation is certified by the Department of Consular Affairs before it is filed with a Thai body. 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 freight forwarder, customs broker, shipping or airline agent or tariff consultant, and it guarantees no decision by the Customs Department, the Marine Department, CAAT, a bank, an insurer or any foreign authority. Cost and lead time depend on page count, how many certified sets are needed, the target language and the steps the receiving party requires, so every file is quoted before work starts.
