An extension of stay — what should you know about the division of authority?

The issue to settle here is “An extension of stay”, so the answer below starts with what this case actually needs before setting out the general rules. 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, keep a digital copy of every page, including seals and signatures, then make sure document numbers, issue dates and issuing-office names match across the set, then ask in advance which category of certified translator the destination accepts. The point to fix before starting is the real deadline, so the steps can be scheduled backwards from it. The deciding factor is the receiving body's requirement, not only the format of the Thai-side document. The terms that frame this page are extension · stay · know · division. Once the set is complete, check it line by line against the destination's own checklist before filing. 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. Entry, stay and status of foreign nationals in Thailand are governed by the Immigration Act B.E. 2522 (1979) and its ministerial regulations: visas are issued by Thai embassies, consulates and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs e-Visa system, while permission to stay and extensions are decided by the Immigration Bureau of the Royal Thai Police. A visa only permits travel to a Thai port of entry; the period you may actually remain is the admission stamp the immigration officer places in the passport on arrival, so always read the stamp date rather than the visa validity. ILC's scope is documentation — certified translation, notarial signature certification and running legalisation at the Department of Consular Affairs or an embassy. We are not an immigration authority and cannot guarantee any visa decision, which rests solely with the competent officer. Fees and scheduling depend on the number of documents, the source language, which authority must certify them and the destination country; we confirm scope in writing before starting.
