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