O que é um Advogado Notário na Tailândia?

Na Tailândia, as funções notariais são realizadas por advogados devidamente licenciados e especialmente treinados pelo Conselho de Advogados, conhecidos como Notarial Services Attorneys. Suas assinaturas e selos têm a mesma força legal nos 125 países membros da Convenção de Haia e em todos os países que exigem autenticação do MFA. Podem ser usados diretamente para registro de empresas no exterior, transações imobiliárias, certidões de nascimento, litígios transnacionais, pedidos de estudo no exterior, entre outros. Cada autenticação inclui o número da licença do advogado, endereço registrado e um registro eletrônico verificável, em conformidade com o Artigo 3 da Convenção da Apostila de 1961.

Principais Tipos de Documentos que Processamos

Procurações (POA, incluindo compra e venda de imóveis, abertura de contas bancárias, representação de empresas, representação em litígios), declarações de estado civil, declarações de parentesco, cópias autenticadas de diplomas e históricos escolares, contratos comerciais, resoluções de conselhos de administração de empresas, autenticação de cópias de passaportes e carteiras de identidade (True Copy), cartas convite para visto, declarações de casamento no exterior, documentos de adoção e custódia, declarações de transferência de propriedade intelectual, autorizações de comércio eletrônico transfronteiriço, entre outros.

Vantagens Especiais para Clientes Tailandeses

Nossa equipe possui funcionários que se comunicam em tailandês, inglês e português; estamos familiarizados com o processo de dupla autenticação da Embaixada/Consulado da Tailândia na China (requisitos correspondentes a diversas agências de entrada e saída, como Pequim, Xangai, Guangzhou, Chengdu); podemos auxiliar na subsequente certificação consular da China (dupla autenticação) para uso na China Continental; fornecemos cópias digitalizadas eletrônicas para pré-aprovação por unidades tailandesas, evitando viagens repetidas.

Área de Cobertura em Bangkok e em todo o país

Nosso escritório em Bangkok está localizado no 18º andar do edifício Interchange 21, na Sukhumvit Road 21 (BTS Asok / MRT Sukhumvit). Temos também duas filiais em Phrom Phong (9º andar do EmQuartier) e Silom (22º andar do Silom Complex). Para áreas com alta concentração de clientes tailandeses, como Huai Khwang, Ratchadaphisek, Phra Khanong, On Nut, Bang Na, Chinatown (Yaowarat), podemos organizar serviços notariais móveis. Nas 73 províncias fora de Bangkok, temos advogados parceiros. Em Phuket, Chiang Mai, Pattaya, Hua Hin, Koh Samui e Hat Yai, temos advogados residentes, eliminando a necessidade de viajar para Bangkok.

Autenticação por Vídeo Remoto (RON)

Para clientes que estão na Tailândia, Hong Kong, Taiwan ou em um terceiro país e não podem comparecer em Bangkok, oferecemos o serviço de Notarização Online Remota (RON): através de Zoom ou Tencent Meeting com verificação de identidade KYC, o advogado assina e carimba simultaneamente, e os documentos são enviados via EMS/DHL, levando de 1 a 2 dias úteis. O RON é adequado para jurisdições que reconhecem a autenticação remota, como alguns estados dos EUA/Canadá, Singapura, Reino Unido; para uso na Tailândia, verifique a aceitação da unidade receptora.

Autenticação Domiciliar e Casos Urgentes

Oferecemos visitas domiciliares gratuitas em 5 grandes distritos de Bangkok (com agendamento prévio de 24 horas); fora da província, o custo é calculado pela distância. Casos urgentes no mesmo dia: se confirmados antes das 11h, podem ser concluídos antes das 17h; serviços urgentes noturnos/de fim de semana também podem ser organizados, com uma taxa adicional de 50%. A retirada no aeroporto (BKK/DMK) também pode ser personalizada, ideal para clientes que vêm à Tailândia por um curto período apenas para autenticação.

Documentação Adicional para Estrangeiros

Clientes com passaporte tailandês devem apresentar o passaporte original válido + visto atual da Tailândia + carimbo de entrada; clientes com permissão de trabalho (Work Permit) ou visto de longa duração (LTR, Elite, Retirement) podem usufruir de uma gama mais ampla de emissão de documentos. Para procurações (POA) envolvendo bens imóveis, participação em empresas ou representação em litígios, o advogado verificará adicionalmente a identidade do beneficiário e exigirá uma cópia traduzida bilíngue, protegendo os direitos legais do cliente.

Conexão com Apostila / MFA / Embaixadas

A autenticação é apenas o primeiro passo para a legalização. Documentos destinados a países membros da Convenção de Haia (incluindo Tailândia) precisam de um Apostila adicional (4-7 dias úteis, urgência em 48 horas); países não membros seguem a rota MFA + dupla autenticação da embaixada do país de destino na Tailândia. A NYC Legal oferece um pacote completo de redação, tradução, autenticação, MFA e serviços de embaixada, exigindo apenas uma visita do cliente.

Perguntas Frequentes

O que precisa ser feito após a autenticação para uso na Tailândia?

A Tailândia aderiu à Convenção de Haia sobre Apostilas em 2023. A partir de 2024, documentos emitidos no exterior com Apostila podem ser usados diretamente na Tailândia, sem a necessidade de dupla autenticação pela Embaixada da Tailândia. No entanto, algumas agências locais (especialmente imigração, reguladores de setores específicos) ainda podem exigir dupla autenticação. Recomenda-se confirmar com a agência receptora na Tailândia com antecedência.

É necessário comparecer pessoalmente?

Em princípio, é necessário comparecer pessoalmente, pois o advogado deve verificar sua identidade e intenção de assinar. Se não puder comparecer, podemos organizar a autenticação por vídeo remoto (aplicável a alguns documentos) ou serviços de advogado domiciliar.

São aceitos pagamentos via Line Pay/TrueMoney Wallet?

Sim. Aceitamos Line Pay, TrueMoney Wallet, PromptPay, transferências bancárias locais na Tailândia (KBANK/SCB/BBL/KTB), SWIFT, PayPal e Wise.

É possível realizar a autenticação em cidades fora de Bangkok?

Sim. Temos advogados residentes em Phuket, Chiang Mai, Pattaya, Hua Hin, Koh Samui e Hat Yai; outras províncias contam com coordenação de representantes. Basta enviar os originais via EMS/DHL, e o processo será concluído em 3-5 dias úteis.

É possível fazer autenticação com visto de turista?

Sim. Apenas é necessário um passaporte válido + carimbo de entrada. Se o documento envolver imóveis tailandeses, participação em empresas ou representação em litígios, pode ser necessária documentação adicional.

Em quais países o RON (Autenticação por Vídeo Remoto) é aceito?

Aceito em alguns estados dos EUA (como Flórida, Texas, Nevada, que reconhecem a autenticação remota), algumas províncias do Canadá, Reino Unido, Singapura e Austrália para certos fins. Para outras jurisdições, confirme com a parte receptora antes de usar.

É possível providenciar tradução + autenticação + Apostila simultaneamente?

Sim. Oferecemos um pacote completo a partir de THB 7.500, com conclusão em 4-7 dias úteis, ou 48 horas para casos urgentes. O cliente só precisa visitar nosso escritório uma vez.

In-depth Q&A

Are your notarial certificates accepted by foreign embassies and overseas authorities?

Yes. Every notarial act is signed by an attorney registered on the Lawyers Council of Thailand notarial roster and bears a bilingual Thai/English certificate. The signature and seal are filed with the Council and recognised by the Department of Consular Affairs for onward MFA legalisation and embassy authentication.

Do I need to legalise my document after notarisation?

If the document will be used inside Thailand the notary stamp alone is usually sufficient. If it leaves Thailand it must continue the chain: notary → MFA Department of Consular Affairs → either the destination embassy in Bangkok, or — for Hague Convention members — a single Apostille issued by the MFA.

How fast can you complete an end-to-end legalisation?

Standard packages clear in 5–7 business days (notary 1 day + MFA 2 days + embassy 2–4 days). Express channels can compress this to 48–72 hours for Bangkok-based embassies that accept walk-in submissions.

Which destinations now accept the Hague Apostille from Thailand?

All 125+ Convention member states accept the Thai MFA Apostille issued from 28 February 2027. Non-member destinations (notably China for non-Hong Kong/Macau use, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait for many document types) still require the traditional embassy chain.

Do you handle translations in languages other than English?

Yes. We deliver certified translations between Thai and 50+ languages including Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Arabic, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Hindi, Vietnamese, Bahasa Indonesia, Bahasa Malaysia and most European, Middle Eastern and East-Asian languages.

Can you act for clients who are not physically in Thailand?

Yes. Documents can be couriered into Bangkok (DHL/FedEx), processed through the full chain, and returned to any of 195 countries with signed proof of delivery. Mobile-notary appointments are available across all 50 Bangkok districts; provincial coverage is arranged through agent counsel.

Do you provide invoices and VAT receipts for corporate clients?

Yes. NYC Legal & Notary Services Co., Ltd. (DBD registration 0435567000061) issues full Thai tax invoices including 7% VAT, suitable for HR, immigration, finance and procurement reconciliation.

What identification do I need to bring to a notary appointment?

An original government-issued photo ID (passport for non-Thais; Thai national ID card for Thai citizens) plus the original document to be notarised. For corporate matters please also bring the certified company affidavit (หนังสือรับรองบริษัท) dated within the past 30 days.

Glossary of key terms

Apostille
A single-page certificate issued under the 1961 Hague Convention by a designated Competent Authority (in Thailand, the MFA Department of Consular Affairs) that authenticates the signature, seal, and capacity of the public official who signed the underlying public document. Eliminates the need for embassy legalisation in the 130 contracting parties.
Notarial Services Attorney (NSA)
A Thai lawyer who has completed the Lawyers Council of Thailand notarial training programme and is entered on the official notarial roster. Only NSAs may execute notarial acts in the Kingdom; foreign notaries public have no jurisdiction inside Thailand.
MFA legalisation
Authentication by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Department of Consular Affairs, Chaeng Watthana, Bangkok. Required as the step between Thai notarisation and any foreign-embassy authentication, and as the source step for the Apostille.
Embassy legalisation
The final authentication step performed by the destination country's embassy or consulate in Bangkok. Required for documents destined for non-Hague members (China mainland, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Vietnam for some document types).
Kor Ror (คร.)
The series of original Thai civil registry forms — kor ror 2 (marriage), kor ror 3 (marriage certificate), kor ror 22 (divorce), kor ror 6 (family book) — issued by the local amphur (district office). Only kor ror originals or amphur-certified copies are accepted for legalisation.
DBD affidavit
Corporate certificate issued by the Department of Business Development confirming a Thai juristic person's directors, registered capital, objectives and authorised signatories. Must be dated within 30 days of submission for notarial use.
Certified translation
A translation accompanied by a signed translator's affidavit listing the source/target language pair, translator credential number, and a dated statement of fidelity. In Thailand this is delivered on agency letterhead with the corporate seal.
NAATI
National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (Australia). The mandatory translator credential for documents submitted to Australian Home Affairs, state births-deaths-marriages registries, AHPRA, and most Australian universities.
Sworn translation
A translation prepared by a court-sworn translator (notably required in Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Brazil). Thailand has no equivalent statutory framework; the closest is the MoJ-translator roster used for court proceedings.
Police Clearance Certificate (PCC)
Issued by the Royal Thai Police, Special Branch Bureau. Requires a ten-fingerprint card taken at a Royal Thai Police station; standard turnaround 14–21 business days.
PDPA
Thailand's Personal Data Protection Act, B.E. 2562 (2019). Every client file is held in a case-numbered audit trail with explicit consent, retention period, and right-of-erasure procedures.
Express track
Same-day or 24-hour processing tier available for MFA legalisation, Apostille, and selected embassy chains. Subject to MFA queue availability and a per-document surcharge.

Twelve most common rejection reasons & remedies

  1. 1. Document not in original form

    Remedy: Re-issue the original from the issuing authority (amphur, DBD, university registrar, court clerk) before resubmission. Photocopies, scans, and digital prints are rejected by MFA.

  2. 2. Signature in red, gel, or stamp-pad ink

    Remedy: Re-execute the document with black or blue ballpoint or fountain-pen ink. MFA OCR cannot reliably capture non-standard ink.

  3. 3. DBD affidavit older than 30 days

    Remedy: Request a fresh DBD affidavit at any Department of Business Development counter (THB 200, same-day issuance) and resubmit.

  4. 4. Translation lacks translator credential number

    Remedy: Re-issue the translation with the translator's full name, certification body, credential number and dated affidavit on agency letterhead.

  5. 5. Multi-page document not page-numbered or unbound

    Remedy: Number each page as n/total (e.g. 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4) and bind with a notarial ribbon or staple. MFA rejects loose pages.

  6. 6. Photograph older than six months

    Remedy: Take a fresh 35×45 mm white-background photograph; visa-format photos are accepted by MFA and most embassies.

  7. 7. Police Clearance fingerprint card incomplete

    Remedy: Return to a Royal Thai Police station for a clean ten-finger and palm-print card; partial prints invalidate the application.

  8. 8. Power of Attorney missing passport details

    Remedy: Re-execute the POA listing both principal and attorney full passport number, nationality, date of birth and present address; both pages of the passport copy must be attached.

  9. 9. Apostille submitted before MFA legalisation

    Remedy: Apostille is only available on documents that have first cleared MFA Consular Affairs. Submit the MFA legalisation step first, then the Apostille.

  10. 10. Embassy chain missing MFA cover sheet

    Remedy: Most embassies require the green MFA cover sheet on top of the source document and translation. Re-attach in the correct order before resubmission.

  11. 11. Kor Ror submitted as plain photocopy

    Remedy: Return to the issuing amphur for a certified copy bearing the amphur's seal and the registrar's wet signature; plain photocopies are not accepted.

  12. 12. Bilingual notarial certificate language mismatch

    Remedy: Verify that the certificate is bilingual Thai/English (the embassy-friendly format) rather than Thai-only; re-issue if necessary.
