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