jingjingna Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hi all Is there anywhere in Pattaya that offers official translation services from English to Thai? If so, please advise location or other information to help me locate where. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaParent Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 How official does it need to be? British consulate will do it I think if it needs to be officially official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 How official does it need to be? British consulate will do it I think if it needs to be officially official. Isn't it what makes it official the stamp you get from The Min. of Foreign Affairs in BKK ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jingjingna Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Okay, how about any office in Pattaya that offers translation services? As I am unfamiliar with the area, help most appreciated! I was thinking of the British consulate but they don't offer translation services do they? MFA in Bangkok not necessary but the company that does the translation must be registered as offering translation services. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I have used a company in Soi Post Office (Soi 13/2 of Beach Road) but I can't remember the name. A quick search came up with this other company http://www.thaivisa....n/#entry5044217 Edited April 20, 2012 by MJCM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to have my marriage certificate translated and stamped by the MoFA in Bangkok for work permits and dependants visas but if it's not for a government agency maybe not required.

Another mate has his girlfriend do the translation and then takes it to a lawyer to stamp, he used to take it to the former British Consul but since they now charge it's too expensive.

SurfRider Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 . Depending on how "official" it needs to be, you might consider Google Translation. Instant and free and I've had good results with Thais understanding the translation. You can test it by translating from Thai to English and see if you think it's accurate enough. http://translate.goo...n&tab=wT#en|th| . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
