Notary Services in Trat — Document Certification by Notarial Services Attorney
In Thailand, notarial work is performed by a Notarial Services Attorney registered with the Lawyers Council of Thailand — unlike many countries where Notary Public is a distinct office, here a licensed attorney holds this authority. Common services include certifying powers of attorney (POA), documents for overseas study applications, status certificates, certified translations, and affidavits for embassy submissions. Notarised documents often need onward legalisation at the Department of Consular Affairs (MFA) or the destination embassy, depending on how they will be used.

About our team in Trat
Trat borders Cambodia at the Hat Lek crossing and contains Ko Chang, a tourism centre with a substantial foreign operator and resident population. The caseload covers cross-border trade and debt, fisheries and migrant labour, island lease and landholding arrangements, accommodation licensing, and family cases involving a foreign spouse.
Island businesses often run on holding structures and leases inherited from previous operators and never tested in court; the weak points appear only on transfer or when a dispute starts. We review the structure so the exposure is visible first, run the file from our Khon Kaen head office and Bangkok branch, and travel to appear at the Trat Provincial Court.
