NAATI Translation of Thai Marriage Certificate — Australian & NZ Visas (2026)
Source document: Marriage certificate (Kor.Ror.3) and marriage register (Kor.Ror.2)
Where this document is used
Required for Australian partner visas (subclasses 820/801 and 309/100), New Zealand partner visas and IRCC relationship assessments. Case officers usually want both Kor.Ror.2 and Kor.Ror.3 because the register carries fuller spouse and witness detail.
What to prepare before translation
- High-resolution colour scans of every page of both Kor.Ror.2 and Kor.Ror.3
- English spelling of both parties exactly as printed in their passports
- Keep the originals if MFA legalisation will run alongside the translation
Turnaround: NAATI translation in one working day; add 3–5 working days if MFA legalisation is needed.
Mistakes that get documents rejected
- Translating only Kor.Ror.3 and then receiving a request for more information, costing 2–4 weeks
- Name spellings that differ from the passport, raising identity questions
- Using a general translation shop with no NAATI stamp or CPN number
