Wrong. I just asked the girl. She gave precise answers🙏

Which was "It's not our job." Just like I said. 7-11 and Embassies don't give apostilles.

Are you looking for a welder or the equipment (TIG welding machine and stainless steel welding wires)?

 

For welders, it's quite difficult if you don't speak Thai.  

If he walks into a welding shop with a diagram and measurements and points at the sheet metal he wants he won't have to say a word.

For a qualified answer it would be advised to contact your embassy. 🙏

Wrong. It's not their job.  Asking a checkout girl at 7-11 will offer the same results.

Suspect UK Consulate might offer such a service.  US does.  But is the request only asking for your signature to be notarized or the document to be confirmed true?  If the latter expect it must be done by UK in UK.  Sorry but expect someone from UK may be able to provide better help.  If not perhaps call Embassy and see if they can answer (I know Embassy does not have high reputation but if they know they may be willing to provide answer.

This is unequivocally false.  No US Embassy or Consulate can issue an apostille as they are both not charged with that authority and do not have records confirming the credentials of the notary or Federal, State or County officials who's signature/credentials would be verified by the apostille at either a US Secretary of State or Federal Secretary of State level

Notaries are available in Thailand and their stamp should be accepted abroad.  I had a Thai notary stamp in a request for documents un the US and It i as acceptable. An apostille is a certification of a notary's credentials. Nothing more. As you know non Hague Convention countries like Thailand cannot issue an apostille on Amy Thai originating document.  Since you have UK doc you need a UK apostille.  The process is fairly simple the form is available online.  There are notaries in the UK that will also send your doc for apostille but it gets expensive when they do the legwork.  If a notary stamp will do you can find one here by asking at your local legal offices. If you must have an apostille you will need to submit that in the UK or have a friend or family member make the request there but you may need to courier documents around if you need to sign them personally.  An embassy or consulate cannot issue apostilles either.  It's not relevant to you but in case another researcher comes across this I signed a Power of Attorney here in Thailand for my attorney in Italy in front of a representative at the Italian embassy in Bangkok who first notarized my signature and then legalized it for use in court.  This legalization is offered in lieu of apostille service in non-Hauge countries to citizens of the Embassy nation, as I have said, not available in Thailand. I am not an Italian citizen but I made the case to the embassy that the POA was for my Italian attorney and the graciously bent the rules based in that criteria.

Stop saying chai tea.  It's like saying café coffee.

Just so you know and understand... the online appointment system for a driver's license is a hoax... the workers at DLT 2 in Chiang Mai do not recognize what it means... just another failure 

The title of your post was a hoax also.  You don't understand what words mean. 

Depends if the damage was caused by improper use.  How deep inside you have you been shoving it?

As someone who used to take down a lot of wallpaper I can tell you it comes down without destroying the wall only it was applied correctly including priming the walls beforehand.  Every once in a while we would get a job where the hanger cut corners and we would be pulling off pieces the size of a thumbnail for days instead of pulling off whole sheets in seconds.

Each day trump is being shown to be what he has always been: a totally self-serving, childish loser.

 

The so-called billionaire will be appealing to his goobers for their Pornhub membership money, so he can afford to order his KFC buckets. As Everett Dirksen sort of said, "$83.3 million here, $370 million there, and pretty soon we're talking real money". And that is likely money trump doesn't have. trump also owes lots of money to Russian oligarchs that funded him---according to donny, jr and Punxsutawney eric---via SIVs set up by Detsche Bank. Those guys won't take kindly to being stiffed, and a couple of secret service agents are no match for Wagner Group thugs.

 

trump is also going to lose---even among his cult---as Nikkei Haley goes on the offensive and emasculates him:

 

"Come on, donny, show us what you've got", she said on Wednesday, calling him to debate her. His team probably fears that more than anything, as trump;s increasing dementia would be live for all the world to see and the gaffe machine he has become would be clear to all.

 

Nikki might even take more starch out of donny's sail than did Stormy Daniels, when she said, "Not quite freakishly small, but well below average". An emasculated, small Johnson kind of guy offers little through which his goobers can live vicariously.

 

trump has a limited appeal. He's never going to pull any new members to the cult any more than Jim Jones could do that now. The Kool Aid has been drunk by all those susceptible to trump's silly and banal siren song. He might retain the biggest losers among his cult, but increasingly those not fully afflicted are going to slip away

How is it that everyone loved him until he went into politics?  You've been brainwashed.  If anyone is drinking Kool Aid it's you by the gallon.  

I renewed last week along with my Thai IDP. Not expired with Non O extension. Take the online DLT test and bring the QR code with you. Med cert. Immigration address cert which was free but took a week to issue and now required a TM30 in addition to PP face and visa/extension page copies. This is a Samui report only. Can't speak for everywhere. Can apply 90 Days before expiration or up to one year after. IDP is a separate transaction and not what the OP asked but for those interested it's a separate transaction. Requires the valid DL, another address cert and the same PP copies and since Samui does not process them and I didn't have the time it takes to process the request in Surat Thani I hired a DLT employee to handle that on the side.  She also changed my MC green book from my old province to Surat. Yet another transaction that required two more address certs and could only be done in Surat and requires a three day stay which I can't do.  Before anyone says "you don't need a Thai IDP", yes I do.  My home DL is expired and I'm visiting a country soon that insists on a valid DL and IDP to rent anything. Bonus is that since my MC DL and Auto DL expire a year apart despite being issued a week apart I get to do it all over again next year.  This party just gets better and better!  Also I spoke to two different agents first, one of whom said the blue book could not be changed without an address cert on my old cancelled PP which is obviously impossible to get and the other said she would have to travel to my old province which is also obviously incorrect.  Soup to nuts about 7 weeks to get it all done. 

Did you know hearing is the only part of us that does not degrade with age.  All hearing reduction and loss is caused by damage.

I went with my TGF to our local amphur a few months ago, was told to go get legally married then come back and ask again. So I've given up on ever having one.

I suspect your GF was doing the translating 🤔

Authorities were alerted by locals who suspected something was wrong when they detected the far more pleasing aroma of a 5 day old corpse over the usual stench of the durian.

Bank accounts not so easy to get.  If it was me I would keep it alive.  No one knows what policies will come down next. You may be glad to have options.  KTB insisted on opening a new account for me when I moved and told me to let the other die but I didn't. I use one for all my main banking and the other for my annual visa extension so the statement has only the most basic immigration deposit requirements and is only one.page long.  They don't need to know about how I spend all my money.

Koh Chang. the best of both worlds, live music, bars, many good restaurants, beaches good, no traffic jams. 

And the highest amount of annual rainfall of anywhere in Thailand.  Six months of moldy damp clothes and bedding? I'll pass.

I was approaching the check out counter in Big C once at about the sake time as a Thai woman.  I graciously indicated that she should go ahead of me.  Instead of just moving forward so I could fall in line behinds her, she pushed her cart Infront of me and started calling over several friends and waived them all ahead of her and in turn me.  I laughed.  Animals gonna be animals. Same happens every day at the vegetable weigh station in Makro when somehow the Thais never see my items on the counter when they put there things in front of mine.  Most of the time I let it go but sometimes for fun I'll ask them in their native tongue when they lost their sight. Then the jaws all hit the floor. 😂

Insanity! What does she think this is? Dubai?! 

Tell the bank you want to buy some accident insurance from them and then suddenly they can't wait to open a bank account for you.  I wonder why that is 🤔.

They don't use the QueQ app in Phuket yet? In Samui when I park my bike I open the app and schedule an immediate appointment and by the time I get up the stairs they call my number.  Jumps me ahead of the 50 or so people waiting all day.

Edit: I just checked for you. They have it.  Thank me later and don't tell anyone. It's a secret.

I little wire wrapped around those soft Thai gold clasps would solve most theft attempts.

Have to beg for a visa and extensions, then do 90 day reports, then now also pay tax, and then now also not trusted anymore to not fly without a passport due to overstayers. Oh yeah and while we are on it, we also take your weed away. LOL.

They gave COVID extensions for years no questions asked.  Only people who take the rules seriously are held to extreme scrutiny.  Backpackers, turd birds and skanks in bikinis at the Immigration office get free passes no questions asked.
