Quick answer: Thai marriage certificate (คร.2/คร.3)

"iVC secures both คร.2 AND คร.3, transliterates spouses' names to each passport, then DIFA e-apostille or MFA + destination embassy. From ฿2,900 in 6–15 business days."

01คร.2 alone or both?
Most missions require both: คร.2 is the certificate, คร.3 is the registration extract showing witnesses and registrar. iVC obtains both to avoid a second district trip.
02We married overseas — which document?
You must first record the foreign marriage at a Thai embassy or district office to receive คร.22, then the Thai legalization chain applies.
03The foreign spouse's English name is wrong on คร.2?
iVC uses the passport MRZ as single source of truth for the translation to prevent DIFA rejections based on memory-based spellings.
04Previously divorced — anything extra?
Attach คร.6 (divorce record) plus a marital-status certificate before DIFA will apply the seal.

Legalization chain

  1. Step 1
    District Office — reissue คร.2 + คร.3

    You need BOTH: คร.2 (certificate) AND คร.3 (registration extract) — most missions require the latter for spousal filings.

    Duration: same dayOfficial fee: ฿100

    ⚠ Pitfall: Bringing only คร.2 forces a second trip; iVC checklist includes both by default.

  2. Step 2
    Divorce-free affirmation (if applicable)

    For remarried spouses: attach prior คร.6 divorce record. Missing = automatic MFA rejection at the seal-check.

    Duration: same dayOfficial fee: ฿50

    ⚠ Pitfall: Common in second-marriage cases; adds 2 days if discovered late.

  3. Step 3
    Certified translation with matched transliteration

    Both spouses' names transliterated per each passport (Thai + foreign). Foreign passport MRZ is the source of truth.

    Duration: 1 dayOfficial fee: —

    ⚠ Pitfall: Family name order (Western vs Thai) is the #1 rejection reason.

  4. Step 4
    MFA/DIFA — apostille or legalization stamp

    Choose e-apostille for Hague states or standard MFA seal for embassy chain.

    Duration: 1–2 business daysOfficial fee: ฿400

    ⚠ Pitfall: Same-day express slots are limited after 10:00 — book by 09:15.

  5. Step 5
    Destination embassy (non-Hague only)

    Consular authentication for KSA, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Vietnam, etc.

    Duration: 3–10 business daysOfficial fee: ฿1,800

    ⚠ Pitfall: KSA requires the couple's photograph glued to page 2 — culturally specific.

Source-side preparation

  • ▸Confirm both คร.2 + คร.3 are on the latest tamper-proof form
  • ▸Bring both spouses' passport bio pages
  • ▸Confirm target country's translator affidavit language (some missions require the affidavit in target language)
