6 In-house Notary Public Attorneys

Click any license to view the full image. All 6 attorneys are registered Notarial Services Attorneys under the Lawyers Council of Thailand.

Thailand has no separate civil-law notary office. Notarial acts are performed by lawyers licensed as Notarial Services Attorneys under the Lawyers Council of Thailand regulation B.E. 2551. The attorney must see the signatory sign in person, which is why an on-site visit is available where the signatory cannot travel to our office.

Governing authority / legal basis
Lawyers Council of Thailand regulation on Notarial Services Attorneys B.E. 2551 (2008), issued under the Lawyers Act B.E. 2528 (1985)

Fees

What we handle

Identity verification on site

The attorney verifies identity documents in person before witnessing the signature — a step that cannot be delegated.

Signature witnessing

Affidavits, powers of attorney, declarations and corporate resolutions signed in the attorney's presence.

Certified copies

True copies certified against the originals presented at the visit.

Onward certification

Where the destination country requires it, we continue with Department of Consular Affairs certification and embassy legalisation after the visit.

Documents required

How the process runs

  1. 1

    Instruction review

    We read the document and the receiving party's requirements before scheduling.

    Step 1: Instruction review
  2. 2

    Visit scheduled

    An available Notarial Services Attorney is assigned to the location and time.

    Step 2: Visit scheduled
  3. 3

    On-site attestation

    Identity is verified, the document is signed in the attorney's presence and the attestation is completed.

    Step 3: On-site attestation
  4. 4

    Onward chain

    Where required, the document continues to consular certification and embassy legalisation.

    Step 4: Onward chain

Why files get rejected

  • Document already signed before the attorney arrives — it must be re-executed.
  • Only a copy of the identity document available at the visit.
  • Attestation wording not matching what the destination authority demands.
  • Corporate signing without documents proving signing authority.
  • Expecting an Apostille today — Thailand's accession takes effect on 28 February 2027; consular legalisation remains the route until then.

Frequently asked questions

คำถามที่พบบ่อย (FAQ)

Is a Thai notary the same as a notary public in my country?+

Not exactly. Thailand has no separate notary profession. Notarial acts are performed by lawyers licensed as Notarial Services Attorneys under the Lawyers Council of Thailand regulation B.E. 2551, and the attestation identifies the attorney's licence.

Can the attorney visit a hospital?+

Yes, provided the signatory can understand the document and sign. The attorney must be satisfied the signatory acts knowingly; where that is in doubt the attestation cannot proceed.

Can I sign in advance to save time?+

No. The attorney must witness the signature, so any document signed beforehand has to be signed again in the attorney's presence.

Will the notarised document be accepted abroad?+

Many authorities also require Department of Consular Affairs certification and embassy legalisation after notarisation. We confirm the destination's chain before the visit and continue it afterwards.

Deep Context and Service Standards

Sourced from the Lawyer Act B.E. 2528 (1985), the Lawyers Council Regulation on Notarial Services Attorneys B.E. 2546 (2003), the Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562 (2019), the Hague Apostille Convention of 1961, and official publications of the Department of Consular Affairs (MFA).

Firm Overview and Practice Framework

Thai Notary Service is a full-service Thai law office providing document notarization, certified translation, legalization chain management, and international document consultancy. Our team includes Notarial Services Attorneys licensed by the Lawyers Council of Thailand under the Royal Patronage, and we operate offices in Bangkok, Greater Bangkok, and a partner network in every province across Thailand. We serve individuals, expatriates, cross-border couples, students, corporates, multinationals, and government agencies requiring documents with legal effect both inside Thailand and abroad.

All notarial acts follow the Lawyer Act B.E. 2528 (1985) Section 27 read with the Lawyers Council Regulation on Notarial Services Attorneys B.E. 2546 (2003), the sole legal basis authorizing Thai attorneys to certify documents comparable to a foreign Notary Public. Every attorney on our team has completed the accredited training and examination administered by the Lawyers Council and holds a verifiable registration number searchable on the Lawyers Council public registry.

By choosing a firm that houses Notarial Services Attorneys in-house, clients consolidate a multi-stage legalization chain under one accountable roof: attorney notarization, followed by Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) legalization at the Department of Consular Affairs, followed by embassy or consular legalization for the destination country. Since 21 November 2024 the Kingdom of Thailand has become a party to the Hague Apostille Convention (Convention of 5 October 1961 Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents). Documents apostilled in Thailand are now accepted in more than 125 member states without embassy re-legalization, materially reducing turnaround time and cost.

General Information and Firm Framework — Deep Context

The firm operates under an ISO 9001:2015 quality-management framework and enforces data protection consistent with the Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562 (2019). All client documents are stored with AES-256 encryption at rest and in transit and are retained for ten years in accordance with lawyer-record obligations under the Lawyer Act.

Our team combines Notarial Services Attorneys, NAATI-certified translators, and legal specialists in intellectual property, taxation, cross-border family law, corporate law, and immigration law, together with a support team dedicated to documentation, translation, and government-agency liaison.

Fees are transparent and disclosed both on the website and in the pre-engagement quote, separating professional fees, government fees, travel disbursements (if any), and other line items. The firm issues VAT invoices and official receipts and accepts payment by bank transfer, credit card, PromptPay, and cash.

Trust Standards — PDPA, SLA, Quality Assurance

On data protection, the firm strictly follows the Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562 (2019), Sections 24, 26, and 27 — collecting, using, and disclosing personal data only to the extent necessary for the engagement, disclosing purposes, and obtaining consent from data subjects in advance. Clients retain the right to inspect, obtain a copy, rectify, erase, or withdraw consent at any time through the firm's Data Protection Officer (DPO). For clients in the European Union, processing follows GDPR Article 6 (lawful basis) and Article 46 (Standard Contractual Clauses).

Our Service Level Agreement targets an inquiry response within one hour during business hours (09:00–18:00, Monday to Saturday), attorney appointments within twenty-four hours, standard notarization within one business day (or two to three hours on express service), certified translation within three to five business days per ten A4 pages, MFA legalization within two business days on standard service (one business day express), and embassy legalization typically within three to fifteen business days depending on the mission's own policy.

Every deliverable passes a three-tier quality-assurance chain: (1) the responsible attorney or translator, (2) a Senior Attorney or department head reviewing substance and formatting, (3) a Quality Control desk performing the final pre-delivery check. Any firm-side error is remedied at no additional cost, and if a document is rejected by a government authority due to a firm-side error, we cover the entire re-filing fee.

Contact and Initial Consultation

Initial consultation is complimentary via Line @thainotary or by phone at 094-8958999. The team responds within one hour during business hours. Every inquiry is treated confidentially under the Lawyers Council ethics rules and the Personal Data Protection Act.
