I have been reading up on Citizenship by Descent on the Australian Immigration site. It all seems quite straightforward and just a matter of getting a few documents together. However, one of the requirements is for "Certified True Copies" of various items. (Passport/Birth Cert etc etc)

Now, I realize that if I was in Australia, this would just be a matter of taking the originals to a JP. and having the copies stamped and signed.

Have any Aussies been there, done that, here in Thailand? And if so, how did you go about it.

Any info, greatly appretiated

A Thai lawyer can Notorise documents for you and this is acceptable

in many countries, eg the UK.

Alternatively the Thai Foreign Ministry will perform the service for a nominal charge.

Check with the OZ embassy what it required.

Documents can be certifed at the Embassy ... for a fee!! Take the original and copies.

make sure that anyone who notarises documents , write very slowly because the australians are notorious for not being able to read very fast, forgive me old croc for I have sinned Nignoy
