Following current Thai authority practice, Credential evaluators and professional boards abroad often impose their own format — a grading-scale explanation, programme duration and a full subject list. Check the destination's requirement before ordering the translation so nothing has to be redone. Timing to allow: Transcript translation and certification 1–3 business days · MFA legalisation 3–5 business days (express 1–2) · a full overseas university set 5–10 business days We collect documents nationwide by post and return them by DHL/FedEx overseas, so no trip to Bangkok is needed.
