Questions about Non o dependant visa🙏 marriage certificate translation & apostille.
hello everyone, I know apostille is not officially accepted in thailand, i searched online and in this group, and could not find too much information. However my lawyer suggested me to get apostille for our French marriage certificate .
my exact questions are,
1,do we need to translate our marriage certificate to Thai before to get the apostille stamp? as thailand is not a partner,would a translation into english be useful in anyway?
2,do we need to do legalization after we get apostille?
3,Or is it easier to translate through a notary in thailand is much easier? As I will first arrive by tourist visa and convert from there.
Thank you in advance ! wish to hear your experiences about this matter.❤️
