Document legalization at Chaeng Wattana

[khunbillmex]

I have 2 Thai marriage certificates and registrations plus 1 Thai divorce certificate that I need translated into English and then have them all legalized. I understand that this can all be done at the Ministry of Consular Affairs at Chaeng Wattana. My question is where do I find the translators? Are they in the building somewhere? Or are they just hanging around the sidewalks? What is the cost per page to have the translations done and about how long should it take?

I used an agent on sukhumvit who dealt with going to Chaeng Wattana, translations, everything. Cost me B5000 but saved a lot of trouble. There is also a rumour that if you turn up yourself there is a bit of a racket going on with the translation agents in the building and MFA officials, dont know if this is true or not but heard similar stories about Amphurs where farangs are involved.

Thanks for your reply. I'm in Khon Kaen and there are a couple of agents here, I guess it is worth checking their fees vs what AirAisa will cost me.
