How much does it cost to legalise a Affidavit for the Argentina embassy?

Embassy consular fee สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ + Thai MFA legalization (THB 200–400) + certified translation (THB 800–1,500/page) + NYC Legal service fee สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ — typically THB 6,000–12,000 all-in.

How long does the Argentina legalization take?

Thai MFA 2–3 days + Embassy of Argentina 10-21 วัน — 7–21 business days end to end, with express options where the mission allows.

Do I need the Thai MFA stamp before the Argentina embassy?

Yes — every Thai document must be legalised by the Department of Consular Affairs (Chaeng Watthana) before the Embassy of Argentina will authenticate it.

Does the Affidavit need to be translated first?

In most cases yes — the Affidavit must be translated into a language the Argentina mission accepts, certified by an MFA-recognised translator, then legalised together with the original.

What is a legalised Affidavit used for in Argentina?

Visa and immigration filings, marriage, study, employment, pensions and legal matters. Popular documents at this mission: Apostille, Traductor Público.

Can I apostille a Thai Affidavit instead of using the Argentina embassy?

No. Thailand is not part of the Hague Apostille system for this route, so a Thai Affidavit for Argentina must go through Thai MFA legalization and then Embassy of Argentina authentication — not an apostille.

Do I need to appear in person at the Argentina embassy?

In most cases no — NYC Legal submits and collects on your behalf with an authorisation letter. A few document types (e.g. certain declarations) may require your signature, and we will tell you in advance if so.

How recent must my Affidavit be for Argentina?

Many missions expect the underlying Affidavit to be issued within the last 3–6 months. We confirm the current requirement for the Argentina embassy at booking so you don't legalise a document that will be rejected as stale.

What does a legalised Affidavit for Argentina cost in total?

Typically THB 6,000–12,000 all-in: Argentina consular fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่), MFA legalization (THB 200–400), certified translation (THB 800–1,500/page) and our service fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่). You get an exact quote up front.

Can you ship the finished Affidavit outside Thailand?

Yes. We deliver a scanned PDF immediately and courier the legalised original by EMS or DHL to any address in Argentina or worldwide.

Legalising a Thai Affidavit for Argentina

A Thai-issued Affidavit is a domestic document until it is legalised for use abroad. For Argentina, that means a two-tier authentication: the Department of Consular Affairs verifies the translator's and issuing officer's signatures, then the Embassy of Argentina confirms the MFA stamp. NYC Legal handles both tiers, tracks each counter, and returns your document ready to file.

Why the legalization chain is required

Legalization is a chain of trust, not a formality. When a Argentina officer sees the embassy stamp on your Affidavit, they are trusting the embassy, which trusted the Thai MFA, which trusted the issuing office. NYC Legal builds this chain in the correct order so the final Argentina authority accepts the document without follow-up questions.

Certified translation requirements

Most Argentina authorities require the Thai Affidavit to be accompanied by a certified translation into a language the mission accepts — typically English, or the official language of Argentina. The translation must be faithful, complete, and produced by a translator whose signature the Thai MFA can verify. We use MFA-recognised translators so the translation itself can be legalised alongside the original.

Transparent, itemised pricing

Costs are itemised, never bundled opaquely. Expect the Argentina consular fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่), the MFA legalization fee (THB 200–400 standard), translation (THB 800–1,500/page), and our handling fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่). We quote the exact total up front — including courier — so there are no counter-side surprises when your Affidavit reaches the Argentina mission.

Realistic timelines you can plan around

The Argentina mission's own processing (10-21 วัน) is the least controllable part of the timeline, which is why we start translation and MFA legalization immediately and submit to the embassy the moment the MFA stamp is dry. Total realistic turnaround for a Affidavit is 7–21 business days; we give you an honest date at quotation, not an optimistic one.

What a legalised Affidavit is used for

Whether the Affidavit supports a spouse visa, a study permit, a job offer, a business licence or an inheritance claim in Argentina, the acceptance test is the same: a complete, correctly ordered legalization chain. Popular filings through the Argentina embassy also involve Apostille, Traductor Público, which we can bundle in one submission.

Common mistakes we help you avoid

Rejections usually come from small, avoidable errors: an expired Affidavit, a translation that omits an official annotation, a name that reads differently from the passport, or a document submitted to the Argentina embassy out of sequence. We verify document freshness, translation completeness and stamp order before anything is lodged.
