Thai-English Translation and Attestation
Combined certified translation from Thai to English or Arabic with complete attestation processing, ensuring all documents meet Thai Embassy and MOFA UAE language requirements.
Thai-English Translation and Attestation combines certified translation of Thai-language documents with the full MFA and UAE Embassy legalization chain. GreenAttest delivers both services as a single coordinated package, ensuring your translated Thai documents are accepted by UAE authorities.
Most Thai official documents are issued exclusively in the Thai language. UAE authorities require documents in English or Arabic, creating the need for certified translations that meet specific standards. A translation that is accurate but not certified by an approved translator will be rejected by both Thai and UAE government offices.
GreenAttest's Thai-English Translation and Attestation service combines professional translation with full document legalization. We receive your Thai-language documents, arrange certified English translation through MFA-approved translators in Bangkok, and then process both the original and translation through the MFA, UAE Embassy, and MOFA chain.
This integrated service covers all document types: birth certificates, marriage certificates, educational credentials, commercial documents, court orders, and other official Thai documents. Our translators are experienced with Thai administrative and legal terminology and produce translations that are consistently accepted by UAE authorities.

Insider tips
Frequently asked questions

Translation takes 3-5 business days for standard documents. The legalization chain then takes 15-20 business days. Total end-to-end processing is 18-25 business days. GreenAttest starts the attestation prerequisites in parallel with translation to minimize the total timeline.
Yes. Our translator network includes specialists in Thai legal terminology who handle court orders, contracts, property deeds, and other legal instruments. Legal documents may take slightly longer to translate due to the precision required.
The certified translation is attached to the original document and they proceed through the legalization chain as a linked pair. This ensures the translation always corresponds to the correct original and both carry the same attestation stamps.
