Sworn Translation — French Embassy (Traducteur Assermenté)

Any Thai civil-status document destined for a French préfecture, a Campus France dossier, a PACS declaration at a Consulat de France, or a service central d'état civil transcription in Nantes must be translated by a traducteur assermenté inscrit on the list published by the Ambassade de France en Thaïlande. The requirement is not administrative preference — it flows from Code de procédure civile article 690 and the consular reception grid enforced at rue Convention. This SKU delivers a signed, cachet-bearing translation on the exact bilingual template that préfectures and the SCEC accept without follow-up correspondence.

FAQ

Does the SCEC in Nantes accept a translation done in Bangkok?

Yes, provided the translator appears on the current Ambassade de France liste and the cachet is affixed in original ink. The Service central d'état civil rejects photocopied cachets even when the underlying translation is correct.

Do I need an Apostille on the Thai original as well?

Since 28 February 2027 Thailand is a Hague Contracting State, so the préfecture will ask for the Apostille on the Thai original in addition to the sworn translation. We can stage both in a single instruction.

Can the sworn translation be issued for a PACS dossier?

Yes. PACS at a Consulat général de France requires the sworn translation of your birth certificate and single-status certificate; both are covered by this SKU on the same working timetable.
