Questions about UK Affirmation references, translation and the MFO.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi, I'm going through the requirements for the affirmation. It says I need to provide names and addresses of two people, who don't live in Thailand. I've been in Thailand a long time and have lost touch with everyone. Is the embassy going to contact these people?

 

Also, what's the easiest way for getting the translation done and sent to the MFO. I've heard, if you use the service recommended by the embassy, they will deliver it to the MFO for you.

A good translation company will:

 

1. Get the documents they need from you (copy of your passport, copy of your partner's ID card, the affirmation, etc.

2. Translate the affirmation document

3. Make an appointment for the legalisation at the MFA (or get an express appointment if time is short, at a cost)

4. Take the translation to the MFA and get the document legalised

5. Either contact you so that you can call into their office to collect everything, or post the documents back to you via EMS

 

This is the easiest, because all you have to do is attend the translation office at the beginning, supply the documents and pay. Up to you if you attend again in person to collect the documents.

 

Remember to take your passport and your partner's ID card with you when you attend the office. It will save all kinds of problems.

 

Personally, I use Express Translation which are located at BTS Chit Lom.
