Authentication chain for ID Card Copy Certification bound for Austria
Austria is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention — therefore ID Card Copy Certification must pass through: Notary Public → MFA Thailand → Apostille (for Austria).
Once the MFA issues an Apostille, Austria accepts it directly — no further embassy step required, saving 1-2 weeks and embassy fees.
Our team refreshes Austria requirements quarterly to avoid bounce-back on format changes.
