Q1269. Where can I get a Thai police clearance certificate in Surat Thani?

Answered by NYC Visa & Translation

From Surat Thani, the issuing route is the Royal Thai Police Special Branch’s Police Clearance Service Center in Bangkok, not an ordinary local station. Given the travel involved, first ask the center whether your application can be submitted without a personal visit and what conditions apply. Confirm any fingerprinting instructions before seeking assistance from a Surat Thani police station. If document delivery is available for your application route, verify the address and return arrangements directly with the center, and retain copies of submitted paperwork. Coordinate your application with the receiving authority’s certificate-age requirements. For Australian use, check Department of Home Affairs translation rules and whether a NAATI-certified translation is appropriate; legalization should not be assumed necessary.
