Thai Single Status Certificate Translation with Consular Legalization Guidance
A single status certificate is typically required when registering a marriage abroad or applying for a spouse visa, and most destinations want it legalized by the Thai Department of Consular Affairs before use. Customers therefore need a translation that's formatted ready for that next step.

Frequently asked questions
Does the translation also need to be legalized at the Department of Consular Affairs?
We can prepare the translation in a format that is ready for legalization, and a walk-in legalization service can be quoted together with the translation when requested.
Where do I obtain the single status certificate before translation?
From the district office (Amphur) or municipal office where your house registration is filed. Once you have the document, send a photo or PDF and we'll quote and start translation immediately.
How long is a single status certificate valid?
Most foreign authorities will only accept a single status certificate issued within the last 3-6 months. Plan the timing of the certificate issuance, translation and legalization to line up with the date you actually need to use it.
