Parrot might be willing to do it for you; against your agreeing to work one 8 hour day cleaning up his garden, to save his aching old bones!

I have used Woranuch on a few occasions, referred her to some of my friends and have been very satisfied. I copied her info from a previous post:

You can make arrangements to scan and email your documents, meet her at a convenient place and discuss your requirements, or she has been known to come directly to your home to pick up the documents.

A friend of mine, a nice widowed Thai female with British Passport asked me to place her service here:

- Translation Service for 200 baht per page (A4 paper size) (300 as of Apr 14, 2015 Just confirm first).
- Thai lessons for foreigners for 200 baht per hour
- Thai driving licence for foreigners only for 2,000 baht
- Visa services for your Thai spouse to your home country
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 0834035012

I know, if requested, she does English lessons as well.

She is a well-educated lady and mostly knows a solution for every problem.
Whenever you have any problem with a Thai office or whatever, feel free to ask her for help.
She will not overcharge you for that!

I went to PW translations as I needed one side of A4 paper translating.
I was quoted 500 baht per side of A4.
The lady at PW then told me I would be charged 1000 baht as there were too many words on the page (far from true) I declined their services
I have just been to NECC in Nong Samrong the document will be ready Monday 300 baht,highly recommend

Few weeks ago i went to get few docs translated ( Thai to English ) at PW following the good review here in Udonmap.. Her prices shocked me but anyway i left the docs with her and a phone number. She asked me << is it rush ? >> i answered no, expecting it would be ready within few days and that i would get a call... After a 3 week wait i dropped by, docs were ready... Never got a call...
The translation of my financial doc came out weird.. bizarre with phrases like...

<< and agreed for the interest at the rate of XXX per annum together, and shall send an interest once a month always. >>

One last point all my docs are CERTIFIED CORRECT TRANSLATION.. which i never asked for... The translation was solely for my private info.

There is no need to rely on Thais who are resident in Thailand to translate documents. The Internet allows the use of UK based translators. Take a look at the Royal Thai Embassy London website and there is a list of competent translators there. They are not cheap but they will do the job properly.

I probably should have said I was looking for an interpreter as it's only for speaking
