Legalize Professional License / Practising Certificate for use in Equatorial Guinea

The Professional License / Practising Certificate is a legal document issued by a Thai authority. When presented in Equatorial Guinea, the receiving officer needs proof that both the document and the signing officer's seal are authentic. This process is called legalization — not just translation, but a chain of seals, signatures and consular attestation.

For Equatorial Guinea: the file must pass through the Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Thailand. Then it must be stamped at the Embassy of Equatorial Guinea in Bangkok. We re-check destination requirements every two weeks to stay ahead of policy changes.

Step 1 — Source document: the Professional License / Practising Certificate must be an original issued within 1 year. Photocopies must be re-certified at the district office.

Step 2 — Certified translation: our MOJ-registered and NAATI-credentialed translators render it into English or the local language of Equatorial Guinea, with the translator's stamp and certification. Turnaround: 1–2 business days. From 1,600 THB.

Step 3 — MFA legalization: we walk the file into the Department of Consular Affairs, Chaeng Watthana, Bangkok. Government fee: 200 THB per seal (Express +600 THB). We offer a "walk-in by proxy" service so clients never need to queue. Lead time: 1–3 business days.

Step 4 — Embassy of Equatorial Guinea: we present the MFA-sealed file at the embassy in Bangkok. Embassy fees usually fall between 1,500 and 4,500 THB per seal. Lead time: 3–10 business days.
