Does anyone know the procedure and requirements for getting a birth certificate translated from English to Thai? This is to obtain a Yellow Tabien Baan which has been requested by our local Amphur.

For the UK, I  had to get my birth certificate "legalised" in the UK at Milton Keynes. Then it has to go to the London Thai embassy to be "authenticated" and get their approval stamp. Then it had to be translated into Thai and sent to the Thai MoFA to be certified.

English, and thanks for the info. Who in MK legalised it as I'm fairly local to MK?

I did everything from Thailand by post.

Thanks. Do you remember how long the process took from start to finish?

I can imagine that took some time. I'm in the UK now and hoping things can be done slightly quicker.

Just over 2 months to get the MoFA certified document. There was a backlog at Milton Keynes.

Painful. My neighbour can legalise the documents so hoping this will speed things up. Anyway, thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

What does legalise mean, in this context.
