Full legalisation chain for destinations outside the Hague Convention or where double certification is required. Each record states whether the applicant was Thai or foreign, where they were based, which services were used, the main document, the receiving authority, and a process outcome summary. Typical processing time is approx. 5–20 business days, subject to each agency's queue.
- en-consular-0442 · Thai applicant · Sing Buri · destination Armenia
BOI Promotion Certificate — Consular legalisation
Thai national based in Sing Buri. Main document: BOI Promotion Certificate. Context: extra copies were needed because each agency retains one.
What we handled
- sent draft files for review before issuing the final hard copies
- communicated the turnaround as a range and gave status updates during the process
- filed with MFA Thailand and the destination embassy in Bangkok, for onward use in Armenia
- point handled along the way: the required sequence at the destination differed from the common assumption
- Armenia is a Hague Convention member, so the Apostille route was the primary path
Outcome summary: the matter was closed in a single round, avoiding repeat trips for the applicant (processing time approx. 5–20 business days, subject to each agency's queue).
