What our translator checks
- Buddhist Era years: Thai documents count years from the Buddhist Era. Subtract 543 to get the Gregorian year (2569 BE is 2026). You can check a date with our date converter.
- Names as in your passport: Thai given names and surnames can be romanised several ways.
- Name changes recorded on Thai documents, translated so that the link between old and new names is clear.
Licence and visa rules in short
- Licence transfer: Thailand is not on the Austroads list of recognised jurisdictions: you can still transfer your licence, but your state may ask you to pass tests. See which licences convert without a test.
- NSW: for a NSW licence transfer, only the Free Translating Service and Multicultural NSW are accepted, not private translations such as ours. See what NSW accepts.
- Visas: if you apply from Australia, Home Affairs asks for the translator's NAATI practitioner number on each translation, which ours show.

FAQ
How do you convert a Thai year? Subtract 543 from the Buddhist Era year. The months and days are the same as in the Gregorian calendar.
Do I need to translate my house registration (tabien baan)? If the authority asks for it, yes: every page with your entry is translated.
My Thai licence has some English on it. Do I need a translation? If every field is in English, you may not. If any part is only in Thai, a translation is safer.
