July 11, 200521 yr I need to know an official translater in BKK to look at these papers and veryfy that the translation is correct' <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i see many translater places are around Shukhumvit area and Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kingdom of Thailand ... cheers Bambina
July 11, 200521 yr Author But are they accepted and authorised to sign, that the translation is true and correct I am talking about the Sukhumvit ones. Last year when iI brought them a technical book to translate , they opted out. Cannot do sir They certainly were no scholars. It is translated, all I need is for one to read ,and a rubber stamp. When I got the Aust Embassy in BKK to witness a Stat Dec last April. They hit me with a 620 baht fee for the signing. What a rip off. Here it is free, just call into your local police station. I need 11 documents to get checked. I am happy to pay a fair price, but not over the top. Tell me what they charge. Thanks
July 11, 200521 yr If you want to use them for official purposes in Thailand, I think you need to have the translation verified by the Thai Ministry of Foreign affairs.

THANKS <{POST_SNAPBACK}> [/quote Used the following:- Professional Translation Services Ltd. 32/8 Sukhumvit 21 Road(Soi Asoke) Wattana, Bangkok Not far from British Embassy. Get girlfriend to telephone them on 02-2599406 to check they are still able to do. They may need to translate the documents themselves in order to certify. I would not like to certify someone else's attempt. Their certification has been accepted in Thailand and UK by all organisations.

Wouldn't bother with thai embassy, translation services far more convenient and obliging.
July 17, 200521 yr I'm a thai/australian citizen - dual nationalities and I'm also helping an australian friend of mine to get his girlfriend over to australia on a fiance visa. I have translated her documents as well. It's very easy to do. All you need to do is get the translated documents to the misnistry of foreign affairs on cheangwattana road to be "Certified correct translation". You can download the forms from the internet regarding most important documents like birth certificate, id card, and household registration at... http://www.mfa.go.th/web/804.php you will also need to put somewhere on the page that you translated... Certified correct translation …………………………… ( John Smith ) Translator The ministry of foreing affairs will charge 200 Baht per page (front and back) for certifying correct translation. Hope this helps!
