Hi all, I will be marrying my girlfriend of Thai nationality.

Read here that I will need to go through 3 steps to apply for Single Status Certificate:

1) Statutory declaration – swear your oath @ Istana Kehakiman (Palace of Justice)

2) Apply for the certificate of single status @ JPN (NRD Headquarter)

3) Get the certificate endorsed by Wisma Putra (Ministry of Foreign Affair)

Just wondering, after I got the certificate endorsed, do I need to get the document translated into Thai language?
If yes, where can I get the translation service. Read somewhere on the net, the document must be translated by certified party.

Please advise, thanks! notworthy.gif

Thanks brother.

Are they certified bodies of Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA)?
Can Thai Embassy in Malaysia perform the document translation?

Any bro and sis can give some insights on the actual process?

It's better to go to Thai embassy in Jln Ampang and get a list of certified translators from them.

Don't believe in the forummers here who may give wrong list.

Actually, those Thai officers working in Thailand embassy are Thai Malays and they know both Thai and Malay.

They might not need any translation and they can just verify you got the right documents.

I've been there many times and those Thai officers can speak Malay and Thai but very poor in English.

There's no harm in asking the Thai officers first rather than waste money translating with unqualified translators.

There are many ethnic Malays with Thai nationality living in Southern Thailand. They are not ethnic Tai but ethnic Malay.

Very informative, thanks brother.

Actually I need the document in Thai language because my friend told me that to register for marriage in Thailand, I will need to go to the Amphoe located at the district where my girlfriend's hometown is (as per ID card). << correct me if I'm wrong here.

Single Status Certificate is one of the required document to bring in. However, Malaysia can only issue the cert. in English language.

I am concern whether will they accept it in English or not... hence to be safe, better to prepare both languages (English and Thai) ready. It is very far to travel to my girlfriend hometown....
