Thai to English translation service - Sukhumvit area

[Kaoboi Bebobp]

I'm looking for recommendations for a company that does official Thai to English translation. It's not legal work. 

 

It's for translating the Ministry of Public health vax stuff on the Mor Prom app. Yes, the certificate is in English but I'm just covering my butt should border services in Canada wants to have a look via the QR code. 

 

My embassy's one recommendation is not in business. Could be the same for others. The embassy said I could use any service as long as the translation is "Certify true correct translation" and have signature of the translator and company's seal.

 

Thanks.

There is a Vaccination Passport Created for that Purpose.

 

No need to have something translated

How does the Thai vaccine passport work?

In April, the Disease Control Department announced the release of Thailand’s COVID certificate. The passport will resemble vaccine certificates that have been commonplace for decades, like the Yellow Fever Card.

It will display the traveler’s name and identification number as well as the dates of vaccination and the type of vaccine received.

Thailand’s vaccine passport is issued by appointment at one of the following institutions:

• The Bureau of General Communicable Disease at Suvarnabhumi airport
• Travel Medicine Clinic
• Bamrasnaradura Infectious Disease Institute
• Urban Disease Control and Prevention, Bang Khen, Bangkok

^^^ @MJCM I've been checking that site and another regularly throughout recent days. The one you posted, has absolutely no dates until Oct. 8, which is 3 days after my flight.

 

Another site http://vacn.ddc.moph.go.th/index.php has had a couple of dates but then when I try to select a time, clicking it doesn't select anything -- as I found out on the next page shown that tells me I have to select a date. But I can't. This has happened every time I opened this site.

Alas, the airport service was shut June 28. [smacks head] Emailed them and got an auto reply saying this. Yeah, I know, it just gets better. 

 

I decided the walk-in service at Bamrasnaradura is the way to go. But have to be there for queue numbers starting at 6:30 am. That's according to helpful poster @thedemon who reported on his experience in great and glorious detail, which is what convinced me to do it. Saw his long report just after I posted my translation  thread. Thread link:

 

Vaccine Passport issuance in Bangkok

 

PS: I've abandoned the translation idea.

For another tearful, click on Make an Appointment. Not a single open date at all (there was one on Oct. 8 but it's gone and it was after my flight date). Fat lot of good that's going to do people.

When you pointed that out in your previous post, I checked and the morning one was already fully booked and I was 69 out of 70 in the afternoon queue. (Didn't book it though, NO F... Way I am going to upload a copy of my passport to a site that even has HTTPS!! (also I am not planning on leaving anytime soon) ????
