Do I need certified translations for DTV documents issued in Italian for the Thai visa application?

DTV Visa Immigration Document Translation Visa Requirements Thailand Embassy Italian Documents

DTV & DOCUMENT TRANSLATION 🇮🇹🇬🇧

Hi everyone! 😊

Do the documents required for the DTV have to be issued in English, or at least with a certified translation? 🙏🏼

In Italy it is almost impossible to get documents in English from public offices (tax certificate, marriage certificate for my wife) and a sworn translation would be exorbitantly expensive (I would be better off getting the Elite visa at this point 😅)… while with private institutions (bank for the banking status etc) I would have no problems.  

Do you think that if some of the documents were in Italian and I provided a translation of those pages (easily verifiable, they are all personal data) it could work? 🤞

TLDR : Answer Summary

The post asks if documents required for a DTV (Thai Digital Nomad Visa) need to be issued in English or translate certified copies, especially when obtaining official documents in Italy is difficult. Several comments suggest checking with the Thai embassy in Italy for their specific requirements, noting that they may accept Italian documents with translations. Others share personal experiences about the DTV process, including that some non-translated documents were accepted and propose using online translation services.

You can get documents in English and in every language from the EU directly from your comune in Italy, I recently got DTV visa approved for my whole family, some of the documents I provided weren't notarised or translated and some of the bank accounts just screenshot from my phone app, dtv better and cheaper than the elite visa 😀

Apply via a different embassy, in a country that has cheaper translation service.

Certified translations are far less expensive than an Elite visa.

While cost is an important factor, it is also vital to ensure that the translation service you choose is reputable and provides accurate translations that are accepted by visa issuing agencies. An incorrect translation could result in your visa application being delayed or rejected

I've been a certified translator and leader in my field for some 30 years. The price to produce a certified translation of a birth certificate ($30) or transcript ($110) is far less than the many thousands paid for an Elite visa.

I suppose that the Thai Embassy in Italy understands Italian language ... or am I wrong?

You need to ask the embassy you will be applying through, or check their website. They are the ones who will process the application and they decide what to accept and what not to accept.

If you are applying in Italy, they might accept documents in Italian, but they might require translations to English. The only way to know is to ask them.
