Thai Birth Certificate Attestation
Complete attestation of Thai birth certificates (Sor Ror 1) from district office verification through MFA legalization, Thai Embassy attestation, and MOFA UAE final processing.
Thai Birth Certificate Attestation processes your district office-issued birth certificate through the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs, UAE Embassy in Bangkok, and final MOFA attestation. GreenAttest manages the complete chain for UAE residency, visa, and family sponsorship requirements.
Thai birth certificates are issued by the local district office (Amphoe) and must be legalized through the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) before they can be submitted to the UAE Embassy. The MFA verification confirms the document's authenticity and the district office's authority to issue it.
Thailand is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention for UAE purposes, so Thai documents follow the traditional attestation route: MFA legalization, UAE Embassy attestation in Bangkok, and MOFA stamping in the UAE. Each step has specific requirements regarding document format, supporting documents, and processing procedures.
GreenAttest manages the entire process through our Bangkok office, from initial document review through final delivery in the UAE. We handle MFA submissions, embassy appointments, and international courier logistics so your Thai birth certificate arrives fully attested and ready for UAE authorities.

Insider tips
Frequently asked questions
Most Thai birth certificates are issued in Thai. They require certified English translation before UAE authorities will process them. GreenAttest arranges certified translations through MFA-approved translators in Bangkok as part of the service.
The full process takes 15-20 business days including MFA legalization, UAE Embassy attestation, and MOFA stamping. If certified translation is also needed, add 3-5 business days. Express MFA processing can reduce the total timeline.
Late-registered births are accepted, but they may require additional supporting documents from the district office. GreenAttest verifies the registration status and advises on any supplementary documents needed before starting the attestation chain.
Certified copies issued by the district office are accepted for MFA legalization. GreenAttest can arrange a fresh certified copy from the relevant Amphoe if your original is unavailable or damaged.
