You can get a translation done then get the Embassy in London to authorize it.

does it need to be authorized? its for a FLR

I used a company called "Thai style UK" in November to get some documents translated for our FLR - You email them your documents and I got a certified copies posted back within 48hours. I cant remember what I paid thou (I opted for the premium service). They were accepted for the application

No.

For UK visa and leave to remain applications all that is required is that the translation contain:

• confirmation from the translator that it is an accurate translation of the original document
• the date of the translation
• the translator's full name and signature
• the translator's contact details.

This should suffice for all other purposes in the UK as well.

However, should you want to use the translation for a Schengen visa application then it will need to be legalised by the Thai MFA; and, as said, you can get that done at the Thai embassy in Kensington.

I don't know if any of the Thai consulates outside of London provide this service.
