⚠️ Warning: "Too Good To Be True" Notary Fees
Be cautious of providers offering Notary services for unusually low prices (e.g., under 1,000 THB). These are often "rubber stamp" shops without real lawyers. Using fake notary stamps can lead to document rejection by foreign authorities, visa bans, or legal penalties. NYC Legal guarantees that every document is signed by a genuine Lawyer Council of Thailand licensed attorney.
