I'm looking for an official translator to translate some Thai documents for a Schengen visa.

 

I know there used to be one somewhere along Bangrak beach road on the left, heading from Choengmon to Fisherman's village, but I'm not quite sure where it was exactly. I recall there was a sign, but cannot find it anymore. Somewhere past Orgasmic restaurant I think.

 

Does anyone know if it is still there? or Where it might have moved to? Or know of another one please?

 

TIA

Google translate?

No good. The translations have to be done by a certified translator. I will try suggestion from previous poster.

 

Thanks anyway.

Hi phetphet,

I believe that office is closed. Sorry I can't be more helpful. I may be able to help when I get back to Samui in a month or so.

Kind regards,

There is no such thing as a "certified translator" in Thailand. Many people wrongly think that if a shop has a stamp, they are somehow certified. NO certifying body in Thailand.

 

I have done translations myself, and just signed the form with my name and phone number.

Actually the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has a list of certified translators. 

If you're not on the list, no MFA stamp.

Recommended, not certified. As said previously, there is no certification body in Thailand.

Hi PoorSucker.  Do you have a link to that list? I have looked, and am still looking, but can't find it.

 

TIA

Sorry no, it would be in Thai anyway. 

I used the translator near orgasmic before and he fixed the MFA stamp. 

View coming from fishermans village.
