- Client profile
- Thai national living overseas · relies on a relative in Thailand acting under a power of attorney · Location: Surat Thani Province
- Services used
- visa applications + family law (marriage, divorce, children)
- Challenge
- The translated name of an authority did not match its official name — the task was to make this set usable by the receiving authority in Norway in the required format.
- What we did
- confirm the receiving authority's requirements before starting any certification step
- review each original document and produce a checklist of what to fix before filing
- have a second reviewer proofread the translation independently of the translator
- compare the spelling of names against the passport and the main reference documents
- Outcome and indicative timeline
- the risk points were corrected before filing, which reduced the number of revision rounds · about one working week, depending on the intake cycle
- What mattered most to the client
- clear steps and knowing in advance what has to be prepared
