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