Any specific pitfalls with the Degree Certificate?

Honorifics, faculty names, and university Latin names must follow each institution's official English form. We maintain a database of ≈150 Thai universities.

Which spelling must the name on the Degree Certificate match?

It must match the passport letter-for-letter; mismatches are a leading cause of rejection. We cross-check before submitting for legalization.

Do you need the original Degree Certificate or is a copy enough?

Translation can start from a clear scan or photo, but consular/embassy legalization requires the original or a copy certified by the issuing office.

Does a Degree Certificate expire for submission purposes?

Thai documents themselves rarely expire, but receiving authorities commonly require the document (or its legalized set) to be recent — often within 3–6 months. Plan the timing so it is still fresh on submission day.

Which supporting documents should accompany the Degree Certificate?

A passport copy of the document holder, a power of attorney if we act on your behalf, and any checklist or form issued by the receiving authority.
