Frequently asked questions from clients in London
How does the service work from London when your office is in Bangkok?
Everything runs remotely. Send scans by LINE or email, our lawyers check which certification route the authority in London accepts, then you courier the originals or appoint a representative in Thailand by power of attorney. Completed documents are couriered back — usually around 5 working days each way.
How do I make a document issued in United Kingdom valid in Thailand?
A document issued in United Kingdom must first be certified in its country of origin (normally an Apostille). It is then translated into Thai and the translation is certified by the Department of Consular Affairs before it is filed with a Thai authority. Send us scans and we check the order for you first.
What steps do Thai documents need before they can be used in London?
United Kingdom is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so Thai documents are normally translated, certified by the Department of Consular Affairs and then issued with an Apostille. Some receiving bodies still ask for embassy legalisation, so confirm with them first.
I cannot fly back to Thailand — can I appoint someone by power of attorney?
Yes for most matters, including civil registration extracts, police clearance certificates and translation certification. Sign the power of attorney before an officer at สถานเอกอัครราชทูต ณ กรุงลอนดอน or a local notary, then courier the original to Thailand. We send you the exact wording and form the receiving authority accepts before you sign.
With a 6-hour time difference, when should I contact you?
London runs on GMT/BST, about 6 hours from Bangkok. LINE and email messages are received at any hour and answered during Thai business hours, Monday to Saturday. Phone calls can be scheduled in advance.
How long does the whole process take from London?
Three parts: preparation and attestation in Thailand, processing time at the government office, and international courier time (about 5 working days each way for London). Once we see your scans we give you the full expected timeline before starting.
How are fees calculated for clients in London?
This website does not publish prices because the fee depends on document type, page count, target language, the certification route required in United Kingdom and the return delivery method. Send scans by LINE, phone or email for a free case-specific quote.
Which matters are most common for clients in London?
Typically documents used by Thai nationals living in London. We verify the receiving authority's requirements before starting so documents are not rejected after being shipped internationally.
Note: our office is located in Thailand; we have no branch in London. References to authorities such as สถานเอกอัครราชทูต ณ กรุงลอนดอน are public information provided to help you prepare, and you should always confirm current requirements with the receiving authority before filing.
