How do I apostille a Thai Diploma / Degree Certificate for Italy?
NAATI Thailand handles the full Thai-Apostille workflow for the Diploma / Degree Certificate destined for Italy 🇮🇹: (1) certified translation by a registered translator into อิตาเลียน (Asseverazione), (2) Notary Public certification of the translator's signature, (3) MFA Apostille at the Department of Consular Affairs (Chaeng Watthana). Thailand deposited its instrument of accession to the Hague Apostille Convention on 30 June 2026, with entry into force for Thailand on 28 February 2027, so a single MFA Apostille is now sufficient for Italy — no embassy legalisation required. Package 4,500–6,000 THB, turnaround 7–10 วันทำการ. Scan-first via LINE @NAATI from anywhere in Thailand or overseas.

Diploma / Degree Certificate Apostille for Italy — end-to-end workflow
NAATI Thailand operates a dedicated Apostille desk for the Thai Diploma / Degree Certificate (issued by University), with end-to-end delivery to Italy 🇮🇹. We translate, notarise and walk the file through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at Chaeng Watthana under one job number — the workflow most consulates, universities and immigration officers in Italy expect to see.
Why Apostille (not Embassy Legalisation) for Italy — Thailand deposited its instrument of accession to the Hague Apostille Convention on 30 June 2026, with entry into force for Thailand on 28 February 2027. Italy is a Hague member, which means a single Thai MFA Apostille stamp replaces the previous Embassy-of-Italy legalisation step. The chain is shorter, the cost is lower, and the apostille is internationally verifiable from a register number.
Certified translation requirement — Receiving authorities in Italy require the Diploma / Degree Certificate in อิตาเลียน (Asseverazione). The translation must be performed by a Traduttore Giurato + Apostille. We allocate the job to a senior translator with at least 8 years of certified-translation experience; the file is bilingually proofread by a second linguist before notarisation.
Document preparation before MFA — ปริญญาบัตรตัวจริง + แปล + Notary. บางประเทศขอทั้งปริญญาและทรานสคริปต์. We confirm the romanised spelling of your name against your passport bio-page in writing before drafting, so the apostilled translation matches every other Italy-side filing (visa, civil registry, university, professional council).
Typical use cases in Italy — สมัครเรียน Master/PhD; ขอใบประกอบวิชาชีพต่างประเทศ; ลี้ภัยทางวิชาการ; Marriage Registration; Spouse Visa; Student Visa. We have routed Diploma / Degree Certificate apostille files to Italy for partner / family visas, study, work permits, marriage registration, citizenship by descent, civil-status updates, and corporate / banking matters.
Step-by-step workflow — (1) ขอเอกสารต้นฉบับ (≤ 6 เดือน); (2) Notary Public (ถ้าจำเป็น); (3) MFA Apostille (ไทยเข้า Hague พ.ย. 2024); (4) Certified Translation; (5) ส่งหน่วยงานปลายทางผ่าน DHL Express.
Why receiving authorities accept our package — Each apostilled bundle leaves our chambers with: original Thai document (or certified true copy), certified อิตาเลียน (Asseverazione) translation on letterhead with translator's signature and stamp, Notary Public seal certifying the translator's signature, MFA Apostille on the translation (and original where required), and a numbered certificate of accuracy. This is the exact stack Italy consulates, civil registries and the receiving authority routinely accept.
Working tips for Italy-bound clients — Send the sharpest scan you can (300 dpi or better, all four corners visible). Tell us the receiving authority by name so we can pick the correct certification template. Allow 7–10 วันทำการ for the full chain. If you need an apostilled hard-copy delivered overseas, request DHL on intake and we will bundle the courier into the quote.
