Common pitfalls
⚠ Originals sent without certified copies
Notaries verify originals to produce certified true copies. Sending only photocopies prevents the notary from completing the legalisation step.
⚠ Name spelling drift between passport and source document
Embassies compare the latin transliteration on the passport against names printed on civil records. Even a single accent difference triggers rejection — always cross-check first.
⚠ Using outdated civil records
Single-status affidavits, marital records, and police clearance are typically valid for 3–6 months. Submitting older issuances is the most common reason for embassy rejection at the counter.
⚠ Skipping MFA before embassy submission
Most missions refuse documents that were not stamped by the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs first. The chain is notary → MFA → embassy — never embassy direct.
