Where can we get our marriage documents (certificate, State verified and USA government verified) translated into Thai for bank account opening and how much does it cost?

I am applying from Vietnam and I was asked to translate my documents. I went to 2 translations office and they both told me very high prices (115€ for what I need). But the guy that I talked to told me it’s very common for this type of demand that I translate the document myself and they just put their stamp on it. I’m a bit scared, what do you guys think ?

Hello, my dtv application needs further documents but I don't understand everything.

1. *"Documents without an English version is recommended to be translated at an official translation office in Vietnam. A financial statement is required, including bank transactions from the last 6 months and an account balance of at least 500,000 BHT." *I gave them my bank history for the past 3 months issued from my bank website, and over 500.000 THB and not in english. Is the problem only that they want 6 months now ?

2. *"Please provide details about your current work, including (1) your CV or portfolio, and (2) examples of your work, along with any supporting materials that demonstrate your experience and qualifications."* I am a video editor, how do I prove that ? I have a youtube playlist with all my videos but how is that a proof of anything ? Can I ask my main client a letter ? What does it have to contain ?

3. *"Please provide a business registration document showing the company name, the name of the legal representative, and a company profile that includes details about its history, vision, mission, products, and achievements."* I gave them the only document I can find on Urssaf (for french), which is my certificate of affiliation, including my full name, which is the name of my society.

4. *"Please provide the latest copy of your full passport, including all pages (even the empty ones). If you have a Temporary Resident Card (TRC), kindly submit it along with the passport. The photos must show the date and time they were taken."* What do they mean by that ? There is 30 pages in a passport. They just mean the first ones until there is no more stamps right ? How can I show the time my photo was taken ? They can just use metadata...

Hi, I heard that some requirements are different from embassy to embassy, is that true? I have seen that some embassies require a 6 month bank statement of the 500k baht, others only the 500k baht without mentioning the 6 months history. And I think other things may vary as well?

P.S. I might have some Italian written docs (like company incorporation files, company tax returns etc.), do I have to "legally" translate them I guess? Even if I apply from Italian based embassies?

Question about document translations for the DTV Visa

Hi everyone,

For those of you who have already submitted your DTV Visa application:

Did you upload any documents that were not in English (for example, in French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, etc.) and still got approved?

If yes, could you please share:

What language were your documents in?

What kind of documents were they (bank statements, proof of income, etc.)?

And most importantly, were they accepted without certified translation?

I’m a French Canadian, and when I look at the cost of getting all my documents certified translated, it ends up costing more than a SoftPower Muay Thai training package 😅

In my case, my professional portfolio consists of notarized contracts proving my private lending activity. Since each contract includes multiple clauses and conditions, each document is around 12 pages long, which makes translation very expensive.

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience! 🙏

I have my Non-o visa and will be travelling in 2 months time.I will be applying for a 12 month extension on the grounds of being married to a Thai. We were married in the UK. I intend using my own 400,000bht and doing our own application.

I am trying to understand what I need to do in the UK before we travel to Thailand regarding what needs to be translated and legalised.I would be grateful of any advice on offer.

I was asked for documents such as bank statements in English, but my bank does not produce them. In your experience, how were they able to send the converted documents?

How do you translate a document to English? What is the easiest option? Thanks

Hi! For those applying from non-English speaking countries, what's the right way to translate documents for the visa? Do they need to be certified or notarized? Any recommendations? Thanks a lot!

Good morning I’m British but living in Portugal before and my bank statements are in Portuguese. Shall I translate them into English? I know that that’s what we’re supposed to do but of course it’s not gonna be on the original looking statement….
