jfk Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Hi, going to bangkok to pick up my affidavit so i can get married to long time g/friend. i have been reading conflicting views here as to getting it translated to Thai or not in order to get it stamped by thai authorities. are they content enough to see consular stamp and consul signature? if i have to get it translated,any suggestions as to where i can get it done? going to q-house(irish consulate) how quickly can it be done? many thanks in advance for your help.

PoorSucker Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 You need it translated to Thai and get it stamped as a true translation by the MFA (ministry of foreign affairs) Most translation agencies can also have some one to go to MFA and do it. If you go yourself you turn it in and pick up next day. They had a express service before (3-4 hours) but this ended October 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoorSucker Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 (edited) No, your wife can not do it. It must be a acknowledged translation company. Try to get a company that can send it to you via EMS. The must difficulty they had was how to spell my name in Thai.
