Adoption Registration — NAATI translation (Australia / New Zealand)
Thai national based in Udon Thani. Main document: Adoption Registration. Context: a fixed lodgement date meant the translation had to be delivered early.
What we handled
- prepared the translation and matched name transliteration to the passport
- sent draft files for review before issuing the final hard copies
- filed with Department of Home Affairs and other Australian agencies, for onward use in Bolivia
- point handled along the way: the required sequence at the destination differed from the common assumption
- Bolivia is a Hague Convention member, so the Apostille route was the primary path
Outcome summary: issues were resolved before filing, so no documents had to be returned for correction (processing time approx. 1–5 business days, subject to each agency's queue).
Prepare next time: if a name has changed, prepare the linking documents in advance
