How much does it cost to legalise a Power of Attorney for the Iran 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 Iran legalization take?

Thai MFA 2–3 days + Embassy of Iran 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 Iran embassy?

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

Does the Power of Attorney need to be translated first?

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

What is a legalised Power of Attorney used for in Iran?

Visa and immigration filings, marriage, study, employment, pensions and legal matters. Popular documents at this mission: Authentication, Persian Translation.

Can I apostille a Thai Power of Attorney instead of using the Iran embassy?

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

Do I need to appear in person at the Iran 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 Power of Attorney be for Iran?

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

What does a legalised Power of Attorney for Iran cost in total?

Typically THB 6,000–12,000 all-in: Iran 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 Power of Attorney outside Thailand?

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

Legalising a Thai Power of Attorney for Iran

A Thai-issued Power of Attorney is a domestic document until it is legalised for use abroad. For Iran, that means a two-tier authentication: the Department of Consular Affairs verifies the translator's and issuing officer's signatures, then the Embassy of Iran 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 Iran officer sees the embassy stamp on your Power of Attorney, 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 Iran authority accepts the document without follow-up questions.

Certified translation requirements

Most Iran authorities require the Thai Power of Attorney to be accompanied by a certified translation into a language the mission accepts — typically English, or the official language of Iran. 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

Budget realistically: the Embassy of Iran charges สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ for authenticating a Power of Attorney, the Thai MFA charges roughly THB 200–400 per document (express ~THB 800), certified translation runs about THB 800–1,500 per page, and the NYC Legal all-inclusive service fee is สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่. A typical single Power of Attorney therefore lands in the THB 6,000–12,000 range once every counter is paid.

Realistic timelines you can plan around

The Iran 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 Power of Attorney is 7–21 business days; we give you an honest date at quotation, not an optimistic one.

What a legalised Power of Attorney is used for

Whether the Power of Attorney supports a spouse visa, a study permit, a job offer, a business licence or an inheritance claim in Iran, the acceptance test is the same: a complete, correctly ordered legalization chain. Popular filings through the Iran embassy also involve Authentication, Persian Translation, which we can bundle in one submission.

Common mistakes we help you avoid

Common mistakes with a Power of Attorney for Iran: wrong order of stamps, an unverifiable translator, mismatched transliteration of names, missing supporting documents (e.g. a marriage certificate needed alongside a name-change record), and booking the embassy before the MFA step is complete. Our review catches these before they cost you a wasted counter visit.
