Court Judgment — Consular legalisation
Thai national based in Suphan Buri. Main document: Court Judgment. Context: the embassy accepts only certain translation languages.
What we handled
- prepared spare certified copies for agencies that retain documents
- reviewed the originals against the receiving authority's checklist before starting
- filed with MFA Thailand and the destination embassy in Bangkok, for onward use in Australia
- point handled along the way: the agency's submission and collection window was limited that week
- Australia is a Hague Convention member, so the Apostille route was the primary path
Outcome summary: both draft files and originals were delivered so accuracy could be checked before filing (processing time approx. 5–20 business days, subject to each agency's queue).
