Looking for advice. 

Currently in Thailand but will need to leave the country soon to apply for our family’s visas in Hanoi. 

This question is in regards to birth certificates as I am a little confused about what I’m supposed to do. I have my children’s birth certificates notarized and authenticated back at our home country in Canada already. Is there another step after that? Did I have to bring the authenticated copy to a Thai embassy to get something else done? 

Thank you in advance for your help!

Answer summary

The user seeks clarification on the process for using their children's birth certificates for visa applications in Thailand, particularly regarding whether they need to bring the already notarized and authenticated Canadian birth certificates to a Thai embassy for further action. Community responses suggest that the documents should ideally be authenticated by the Thai embassy in Canada and require translation and MFA certification in Thailand.
