What can a document provider do — and not do — for foundations and religious bodies?

The point raised here is “What can a document provider do”, so it deals with the case-specific points first and the shared rules afterwards. Keep a certified standard bundle as a template to shorten the next round. Note who signed each certification and on what date for later reference. Attach a document index to the bundle so nothing is lost during review. If any requirement is still unclear, send a sample image to the receiving body before producing the full set. Project reports and budgets should keep their headings and budget codes aligned with the original. The deciding factor is the receiving body's requirement, not only the format of the Thai-side document. What changes the timeline most here is whether the source documents are complete on day one. The terms that frame this page are document · provider · foundations · religious. If multiple certified sets are needed, order them all in the first round to avoid re-queuing. With a fixed filing date, count backwards from it and book each certification step in reverse. 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. ILC handles documents only: translation, certified translation, coordinating a notarial services attorney and running certification at the Department of Consular Affairs and embassies. It does not register foundations, associations or temples, is not a law firm or an audit firm, gives no ruling on tax privileges, and guarantees no decision by any registrar, religious authority, funder or foreign body. Foundations are governed by sections 110 to 136 of the Civil and Commercial Code. Section 110 defines a foundation as property specifically appropriated to a public charitable, religious, artistic, scientific, literary, educational or other public-benefit purpose, without any aim of sharing profit, and it becomes a juristic person only on registration. The instrument of establishment, the committee list and the registrar's certificate are therefore the core set that foreign funders ask to see. Thai Sangha affairs fall under the Sangha Act B.E. 2505 as amended, with the National Office of Buddhism acting as the state agency for temple registers and related matters. Documents in this group — evidence of a temple's establishment, a letter from the temple, or a monk's identification booklet — are issued only by the temple or the competent authority. A translator has no power to issue them or to certify their substance, only to render them faithfully and certify the accuracy of the translation. 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.
