Legalization is essential to work, study, get married, or conduct business in Thailand. Without proper legalization, Thai authorities may not accept your documents, leading to delays or rejection of your application for residency, employment, or legal matters. At My Visa and Apostille Services, we take care of every step so you can focus on your personal or professional pursuits, relieving you from the stress of the complex legalization process.
Our streamlined process ensures that your documents are handled with precision and care. Follow our step-by-step guide to get your documents legalized for use in Thailand:
We begin by notarizing your documents through a trusted local notary public. This step confirms the authenticity of your originals and is required for most documents.
Certain documents issued by federal agencies may bypass this step, but notarization is essential for most personal and business documents.

Once notarized, your documents are submitted to the appropriate Secretary of State office for authentication. This process typically takes 1–2 business days and confirms that your notarization is valid.
Documents such as birth, marriage, and death certificates must be authenticated by the Secretary of State of the state where they were issued before proceeding to the next step.
For example, if your birth certificate was issued in California, it must be authenticated by the California Secretary of State.
After state authentication, your documents are submitted to the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C., for federal authentication. This final U.S. verification confirms that your papers meet national standards.
Documents issued directly by federal agencies may be submitted directly to the U.S. Department of State, bypassing state authentication.
Once the U.S. Department of State authenticates your documents, they are submitted to the Thailand Consulate for final legalization. This crucial step ensures that your documents are officially recognized for use in Thailand.
The embassy legalization process typically takes approximately 6–7 business days, plus additional transit time for return shipping.
We offer an optional FBI Identity History Report (Rap Sheet) for added security and to further support your application. This comprehensive background check confirms your identity and ensures that all information in your documents is accurate and consistent. Including the FBI report in your submission helps minimize processing delays and strengthens your overall application. The FBI report provides a thorough background check, verifying your identity and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of your documents, which can significantly expedite the legalization process.
Please note: FBI Criminal Background Checks can only be accepted as digital copies received directly from the channeler. Scanned photocopies are not accepted. Otherwise, your FBI report must be sent via USPS, FedEx, or UPS.
