Are NYC Legal Notary attorneys officially licensed

Yes, every Notarial Services Attorney at NYC Legal is licensed by the Lawyers Council of Thailand under Royal Patronage. License numbers and bar numbers are publicly verifiable on the Authors page and each individual attorney profile.

What is the difference between Apostille and Legalization

Apostille is a single-stamp authentication valid in 120-plus Hague Convention member countries, while Legalization is multi-layer attestation by the foreign ministry plus the destination embassy used for non-Hague countries. NYC Legal handles both workflows end to end.

Is a Thai Notarial Services Attorney equivalent to a notary public?

For most destinations, yes. Thailand does not have a civil-law notary; instead the Lawyers Council of Thailand registers lawyers who have completed notarial training to certify signatures, copies and statutory declarations. The attorney's registration number appears on the certificate so the receiving authority can verify it.

What do I have to bring to a notarial appointment?

Bring the unsigned document, your passport or Thai ID card, and any supporting evidence the destination asks for, such as a company registration extract for corporate signings. Do not sign the document in advance: the attorney must witness the signature for the certificate to be valid.

Can a notarised Thai document be used abroad immediately?

It depends on the receiving authority. Some universities and private companies accept the notarial certificate alone. Government bodies, courts and immigration authorities usually require further legalisation through the Department of Consular Affairs and the destination embassy, or an Apostille once the Convention is in force for Thailand.

Aspect	On your own	With NYC Legal
Choosing the certificate format	You must interpret the destination's rules yourself and risk the wrong wording.	We verify the destination requirement and select wording that is actually accepted.
Booking	You need to find and vet a registered notarial attorney.	Immediate appointments with registered attorneys on our team, including out-of-hours by arrangement.
Follow-on steps	Ministry and embassy steps must be arranged separately.	We sequence the whole chain in one workflow and report status at each stage.

Option	What it is	Best for	Watch out for
Notarial Services Attorney (Thailand)	A lawyer licensed by the Lawyers Council of Thailand to certify signatures and documents.	Signature and true-copy certification, powers of attorney, documents for foreign schools or companies.	This is not a US-style Notary Public; some receiving parties still require consular legalization on top.
MFA legalization (Department of Consular Affairs)	Certification of the signature/seal of the issuing Thai authority by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.	Thai civil and government records used abroad: house registration, marriage, birth, police clearance.	Translations must follow the format the MFA accepts, otherwise the file is returned and you lose a cycle.
Destination embassy / consulate legalization	A further certification by the destination country's embassy in Thailand after the MFA step.	Countries that do not accept an Apostille, or authorities that explicitly require an embassy stamp.	Each embassy has its own intake days, forms and translation requirements — verify before filing.
Apostille (Hague Convention of 1961)	A single-layer certification used between member states in place of multi-step embassy legalization.	Documents issued in one member state and used in another member state.	Thailand deposited its instrument of accession on 30 June 2026 and the Convention enters into force for Thailand on 28 February 2027. Until then Thai documents still follow the MFA + embassy route.
