ravip Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Copy of valid passport (certified as a true copy) What exactly do they mean by the above sentence? Who is eligible to certify a document as a true copy in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jip99 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Depends who it is for. I can sign in many cases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcab Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 It means you have to sign the copy yourself. As simple as that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are sending it back to your home country's govt or bank, you likely need more than your own signature or the instructions would have said words to the effect "copy with your signature on it". Yes, certain transactions here in Thailand only require a copy of your passport/ID with your signature on it to show you personally are making the transaction and that the ID copied is real. But that would not be "certified true copy" in the legal sense. One time I was able to use my Bangkok Bank manager's certification on a form to mail back to the U.S. , but most of the time that has not been acceptable. A certified true copy means notarized as true copy and, for U.S. citizens , the notarization can only be made at the U.S. Consulate. I imagine other countries have the same procedure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noise Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 In that case, I would suggest asking the airlines what they will accept. It may be different airlines have different requirements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackdd Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The immigration uses this wording for a document where they require a copy which just has to be signed by oneself: "Certified true copy by the alien" So probably that's also what the airline wants 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
