Authentication chain for Certificate of Identity bound for Cambodia
Cambodia is not (yet) a Hague Apostille member — therefore Certificate of Identity must pass through: Notary Public → MFA Thailand → Cambodia Embassy.
After MFA Thailand, the Cambodia Embassy in Bangkok must add their consular stamp before the document is usable abroad.
Our team refreshes Cambodia requirements quarterly to avoid bounce-back on format changes.
