Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is Thai notarization accepted in Belgium?
A: Yes. Belgium has been a Contracting Party to the Hague Apostille Convention since 1976, and Thailand joined effective 25 December 2025. Documents notarized in Bangkok only need a single Apostille from the Thai MFA to be legally valid in Belgium.
Q: What is the process?
A: Notary Public → Thai MFA (Apostille) → ready to use in Belgium
Q: Which authority in Belgium issues the Apostille / receives legalized documents?
A: The Competent Authority declared by Belgium to the HCCH is FPS Foreign Affairs — Legalisation Office. Documents originating in Thailand, however, do not need to be filed there — the Apostille issued by the Thai MFA is sufficient.
Q: How much does it cost?
A: THB 4,000–8,500 depending on document type, number of pages, and any translation required. Detailed fee breakdown available on request.
Q: How long does it take?
A: 3–7 business days end-to-end. Express service can reduce turnaround by 30–50% for urgent cases.
Q: Does Belgium have an embassy in Bangkok?
A: Yes, Belgium maintains an embassy/consulate in Bangkok, which streamlines the embassy legalization step — no cross-border shipping required.
Q: Do I need to be physically present?
A: Yes — you must sign before the Notarial Attorney in person (Lawyers Council of Thailand regulation). If you cannot come to the office, we offer mobile notary within greater Bangkok or an alternate signatory via Power of Attorney.
Q: What languages are acceptable for Belgium?
A: Documents typically need to be in NL or bilingual (English + local language). We provide certified translation by translators registered with Belgium authorities.
Q: Where is Belgium and are there any regional considerations?
A: Belgium is located in Europe, with Brussels as its capital. Documents that complete the Apostille chain are accepted by all government agencies in Belgium. We verify current destination-authority requirements before starting each case.
Q: Do you handle end-to-end?
A: Yes. We coordinate Notary → Translation → MFA → Apostille → international courier (DHL/FedEx) to your address in Belgium (Brussels or other cities) within 3–5 days after the final step.
