Q1070. How must foreign corporate board resolutions be attested for establishing business operations in Thailand?
Answered by the NYC Visa & Translation legalization desk
Board resolutions should first meet the requirements of the Thai agency handling the proposed business establishment. Confirm the necessary approvals, authorized representatives, signing powers, and any prescribed wording before the board adopts the resolution. Obtain a certified resolution or extract signed by the appropriate corporate officer, supported by registration and signatory-authority records if requested. Ask the responsible Thai embassy whether notarization and home-country authority authentication must precede consular legalization. Arrange a Thai translation and any further MFA certification required by the receiving agency. A common pitfall is legalizing a resolution whose named representative lacks the specific authority needed to sign the Thai application. Verify the wording and attestation requirements with the receiving Thai agency before filing.
