How much does it cost to legalise a Birth Certificate for the Romania embassy?

Embassy consular fee 30-150 EUR + 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 Romania legalization take?

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

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

Does the Birth Certificate need to be translated first?

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

What is a legalised Birth Certificate used for in Romania?

Visa and immigration filings, marriage, study, employment, pensions and legal matters. Popular documents at this mission: Apostille, Romanian Sworn Translation.

Can I apostille a Thai Birth Certificate instead of using the Romania embassy?

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

Do I need to appear in person at the Romania 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 Birth Certificate be for Romania?

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

What does a legalised Birth Certificate for Romania cost in total?

Typically THB 6,000–12,000 all-in: Romania consular fee (30-150 EUR), 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 Birth Certificate outside Thailand?

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

Legalising a Thai Birth Certificate for Romania

If you are relocating to, studying in, marrying in, or doing business with Romania, your Thai Birth Certificate will only be accepted once it carries both the Thai MFA legalization stamp and the Romania embassy authentication. We prepare the certified translation, secure the consular stamp in Chaeng Watthana, and submit the file to the Romania mission at ถนนสาทรใต้ on your behalf.

Why the legalization chain is required

Legalization is a chain of trust, not a formality. When a Romania officer sees the embassy stamp on your Birth Certificate, 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 Romania authority accepts the document without follow-up questions.

Certified translation requirements

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

The Romania embassy fee for a Birth Certificate (30-150 EUR) is set by the mission and can shift with exchange rates, so we confirm it at booking. Add MFA legalization, certified translation, and our transparent service fee (สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่) and the all-in figure is usually THB 6,000–12,000 for one document — with volume discounts for family or corporate batches.

Realistic timelines you can plan around

The Romania 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 Birth Certificate is 7–21 business days; we give you an honest date at quotation, not an optimistic one.

What a legalised Birth Certificate is used for

Foreign nationals typically need a legalised Birth Certificate when dealing with Romania government offices, courts, universities, employers or banks — anywhere the receiving party must trust a Thai record. At this mission the highest-volume documents are Apostille, Romanian Sworn Translation, and we handle each with the correct chain for its purpose.

Common mistakes we help you avoid

The most frequent rejections we prevent: submitting the Birth Certificate to the Romania embassy before the MFA stamp; name spellings that differ from the passport; an outdated document (many missions want issuance within 3–6 months); a translation missing a seal or marginal note; and photocopies where a certified true copy or original is required. We pre-flight every file against the Romania mission's current checklist.

Why work with NYC Legal

Doing this yourself means multiple trips across Bangkok, queueing at the MFA and the Romania mission, and risking a wasted day if any detail is off. We consolidate the entire Birth Certificate legalization into one managed service, submit at ถนนสาทรใต้ on your behalf, and return the document ready to file — in Thailand or shipped internationally.
