Thai translation of passport for marriage?

[howard ashoul]

Does anybody know how should document from embassy look like? Should it be just a copy of passport with stamp and signature from embassy? 

 

We went to Thai Ministry at Monday and they didn't like our english version. So we don't know how it should look like.

Sorry but which document are you after from the Embassy???

An affirmation to marry letter, or a proof of pension letter???

If it's just a passport copy you want then you don't need to go to your Embassy at all, just get it copied at a translation shop and they would do the rest, and they would get it stamped at the MFA too, for a small fee.

what is it you want?

Passport in Thai language.

 

I went to Ministry of foreign affairs to get it translate to Thai and get it legalized by them. But they told me, that first I have to go with my passport to my embassy. (1) Get copy legalized by my embassy. (2) Translate it to thai. (3) Get it legalized by them.

 

But it failed at first step, when my embassy issued me legalized copy of my passport. But thai ministry didn't like it. And they didn't let me translate it to thai and get it legalized.

 

Now I don't know what to tell to embassy that I want. Since their first attemp failed. What shoild I asked for at my embassy and in which format, so thai ministry can it legalized?

Ok I have just read a previous post of yours and you want it for a marriage.

I will ask my wife for you when she gets home from court and let you know.

Apparently I was wrong earlier and you do have to get the Embassy to certify that the passport is genuine. You then take this document to a translation office and get them to take the document and the translated copy to the MFA to be stamped and they will then post it to your address. They obviously charge you a fee for this service but it is quite reasonable and you don't normally get these problems then.
