MFA legalisation of house registration & Thai ID card
The house registration book (Tor Ror 14) and the Thai ID card are the standard proof-of-address and identity pair requested alongside a birth certificate. The copy must be certified and signed by the district registrar and still within the destination's validity window (often three to six months). Translations must transliterate province, district and sub-district consistently throughout, and the 13-digit national ID number must match everywhere. We verify document age, stamp legibility and data consistency before filing.

Legal basis and scope
การรับรองนิติกรณ์เอกสารดำเนินการโดยกองสัญชาติและนิติกรณ์ กรมการกงสุล กระทรวงการต่างประเทศ ตามระเบียบกระทรวงการต่างประเทศว่าด้วยการรับรองเอกสาร
Legalisation verifies the signature and seal of the issuing officer or certifying translator. It does not certify that the facts stated in the document are true, and it is not an approval by the destination authority. Always confirm any additional requirements with the receiving authority before filing.
How the process works
- Send scans and tell us the destination country and authority via LINE @NYCLI or contact@ilc.ltd.
- We check the source documents and quote the handling fee, government fee and timeline as separate lines.
- We prepare the translation with passport-matching name spelling and assemble the file in the format the Department requires.
- We file at the Legalisation Division, Department of Consular Affairs and track the queue to the stamp.
- Where required we continue the chain at the destination embassy or consulate in Bangkok.
- Originals return by EMS or messenger with colour PDF scans.

Not yet. Thailand's accession to the HCCH Apostille Convention takes effect on 28 February 2027. Until then Thai documents used abroad still require Department of Consular Affairs legalisation followed by the destination embassy.
