Destination-country embassy in Bangkok

AI Quick Answer

Legal reference

Vienna Convention on Consular Relations 1963, Article 5

When is embassy legalisation required?

Only when the destination country is not yet a member of the Hague Apostille Convention: China (excluding Hong Kong and Macau), UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Egypt, some Vietnam cases, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and others. The chain is PCC → translation → MFA legalisation → destination-embassy authentication in Bangkok — only then is the document valid overseas.

Real per-country cost (examples)

China: gov THB 850 + service THB 3,500 = THB 4,350 (7 days) · UAE: 2,200 + 3,000 = 5,200 (10 days) · KSA: 4,500 + 3,500 = 8,000 (10 days) · Korea: 600 + 2,500 = 3,100 (5 days) · Japan: 500 + 2,500 = 3,000 (3 days — often MFA alone suffices) · Germany: 1,500 + 3,000 = 4,500 (7 days) · Vietnam: 800 + 2,500 = 3,300 (5 days).

FAQ

How many embassies do you cover?

195+ embassies in Bangkok plus honorary consulates.

Which countries no longer need the embassy step?

From 14 Feb 2026, the 125+ Hague members accept the MFA Apostille alone — USA, UK, EU, Australia, Japan, Korea, India, Mexico, Canada, and more.

Is China really the slowest?

China: 7-10 days · UAE/KSA: 10-14 days · other embassies average 3-7 days.

Must the document holder attend in person?

Generally no — a Power of Attorney is enough. Exceptions include Iran and Cuba, which require an in-person interview.

How long is the authenticated PCC valid?

The PCC itself is valid 3-6 months; embassy stamps have no separate expiry, but receiving authorities usually track the original PCC issue date.
