- Client profile
- Thai national living overseas · relies on a relative in Thailand acting under a power of attorney · Location: Trat Province
- Services used
- wills and succession + accounting and financial statement work + criminal defence matters
- Challenge
- A name spelling did not match the passport and the file was returned — the task was to make this set usable by the receiving authority in Finland in the required format.
- What we did
- draft a power of attorney that covers every step to be handled on the client's behalf
- prepare the translation using the official names the authorities themselves use
- 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
- detailed checking before filing to reduce the chance of a return
