How much does it cost to legalise a Affidavit for the Syria 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 Syria legalization take?

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

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

Does the Affidavit need to be translated first?

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

What is a legalised Affidavit used for in Syria?

Visa and immigration filings, marriage, study, employment, pensions and legal matters. Popular documents at this mission: Embassy Legalization, Arabic Translation.

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

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

Do I need to appear in person at the Syria 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 Syria?

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

What does a legalised Affidavit for Syria cost in total?

Typically THB 6,000–12,000 all-in: Syria 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 Syria or worldwide.

Legalising a Thai Affidavit for Syria

Getting a Thai Affidavit recognised by the Syria authorities almost always requires a full legalization chain rather than a single stamp. Because Thailand is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention for this route, a Affidavit issued in Thailand cannot simply be apostilled — it must first be certified by the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Legalization Division, Chaeng Watthana) and then authenticated by the Embassy of Syria in กรุงเทพฯ (สาทร). NYC Legal manages this end to end so you never have to queue in person.

Why the legalization chain is required

Each layer in the legalization chain authenticates the layer beneath it. The certified translation is verified by the translator's declaration; the MFA authenticates the translator's registered signature; and the Embassy of Syria authenticates the MFA. Break the chain anywhere and the Syria authorities can lawfully refuse the Affidavit, even if the underlying facts are correct.

Certified translation requirements

Translation is not optional cosmetic work — it is part of the legal instrument. For Syria, the Affidavit translation must mirror every seal, marginal note and signature block of the Thai original. Our translators reproduce the full layout, then attach a signed certificate of accuracy that the Legalization Division will authenticate.

Transparent, itemised pricing

Budget realistically: the Embassy of Syria charges สอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ for authenticating a Affidavit, 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 Affidavit therefore lands in the THB 6,000–12,000 range once every counter is paid.

Realistic timelines you can plan around

The Syria 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 Syria, the acceptance test is the same: a complete, correctly ordered legalization chain. Popular filings through the Syria embassy also involve Embassy Legalization, Arabic Translation, which we can bundle in one submission.

Common mistakes we help you avoid

Common mistakes with a Affidavit for Syria: 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.

Why work with NYC Legal

Our value is certainty. We know the Syria mission's current requirements for a Affidavit, we use MFA-recognised translators, and we sequence the chain correctly the first time. That means no repeat consular fees, no missed deadlines, and a document your Syria counterpart will accept without objection.
