Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is Thai notarization accepted in Sri Lanka?
A: Yes, through the full legalization chain: Thai Notary → Thai MFA → Sri Lanka Embassy in Bangkok. Sri Lanka is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so full consular legalization is required.
Q: What is the process?
A: Notary Public → Thai MFA (Legalization) → Sri Lanka Embassy in Bangkok → ready to use
Q: Which authority in Sri Lanka issues the Apostille / receives legalized documents?
A: Once legalized by the Sri Lanka Embassy in Bangkok, documents can be filed directly with the destination authority in Sri Lanka (immigration, courts, civil registry — capital: Colombo).
Q: How much does it cost?
A: THB 7,500–13,000 depending on document type, number of pages, and any translation required. Detailed fee breakdown available on request.
Q: How long does it take?
A: 7–18 business days end-to-end. Express service can reduce turnaround by 30–50% for urgent cases.
Q: Does Sri Lanka have an embassy in Bangkok?
A: Yes, Sri Lanka 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 Sri Lanka?
A: Documents typically need to be in SI or bilingual (English + local language). We provide certified translation by translators registered with Sri Lanka authorities.
Q: Where is Sri Lanka and are there any regional considerations?
A: Sri Lanka is located in Asia, with Colombo as its capital. Documents that complete the full legalization chain are accepted by all government agencies in Sri Lanka. We verify current destination-authority requirements before starting each case.
Q: Do you handle end-to-end?
A: Yes. We coordinate Notary → Translation → MFA → Embassy → international courier (DHL/FedEx) to your address in Sri Lanka (Colombo or other cities) within 3–5 days after the final step.
