One visa case, one team — notary, translation, MFA, and embassy
A visa-specific notary service that mirrors each embassy's exact checklist, sequences the notary → MFA → embassy chain, and offers appointments near 70+ embassies in Bangkok.
No. Some destinations (USA, UK, Australia) accept notarised documents directly, while Schengen, the Middle East, and China typically require the full MFA + embassy chain.
Can your team file at the MFA and embassy on my behalf?
Yes. We handle the full courier and queueing service with end-to-end tracking.
Why visa and extension filings get refused or queried
Short answer: The usual triggers are funds not held for the required period, foreign documents without legalisation and Thai translation, an address that does not match the residence notification, and filing too close to expiry to fix anything. Planning the timeline is the strongest prevention.

Service steps at a glance and the documents you need first
Thai government-issued records can go straight to the Legalization Division, while private documents first need a notarial signature certificate. The correct order is original, lawful form, translation, consular authentication, then embassy authentication.
