If you have official documents from Thailand and plan to use them in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for work, study, business, or personal reasons, you’ll need to go through proper legalization and often a certified translation. This ensures your Thai-issued documents are accepted by UAE authorities, including MOFA, immigration, labor departments, courts, and ministries.
In this guide, we explain how Thai legalization and translation services work and how you can process your documents without delays or rejections.
Why Do Thai Documents Need Legalization in the UAE?
The UAE does not recognize foreign documents without proper authentication. If your documents were issued in Thailand and you're applying for a visa, business registration, or academic equivalency, they must go through the embassy and MOFA legalization.
Documents without legalization may be considered invalid for:
Employment visa applications
Family visa sponsorship
Business registration
Court submissions
University admissions or degree recognition
Property or bank transactions
What Thai Documents Require Legalization?
🔹 For Individuals:
Thai Birth Certificate

Step-by-Step: How Thai Document Legalization Works for UAE Use
1. Document Notarization in Thailand
A licensed lawyer or notary public notarizes documents.
2. Legalization by Thailand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bangkok confirms the document’s legitimacy.
3. UAE Embassy Legalization in Bangkok
Documents are then stamped by the UAE Embassy in Thailand.
4. Final MOFA Attestation in the UAE
Once the documents arrive in the UAE, they are legalized by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
