Why a Academic Transcript must be legalized before use in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
The Academic Transcript is a academic document issued by a Thai authority. When presented in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, 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 Saint Vincent and the Grenadines: the file must pass through the Department of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Thailand. An embassy step may not be required if the destination accepts MFA-only or Apostille. We re-check destination requirements every two weeks to stay ahead of policy changes.
