Certifying a signature
Where to apply?
Attestation of signature authenticity can be obtained in any Polish consular post.
Do I have to apply in person?
Yes, to receive attestation of signature authenticity you must appear in person at a consular post.
How to book an appointment?
You can book your appointment to apply for a visa via the e-konsulat system, by choosing “Legal matters” from the menu on the left of the screen. If the system does not show a date you want, it means there are no slots available on that date or the Consular Section is closed. New appointments are opened every Tuesday from 10.00-10.30 a.m. local time.
What documents do I need to submit?
Please prepare:
- the document, on which you want to attest your signature,
- valid identity document (passport or personal ID).
Please do not sign the document at home. You will need to sign it in the consul's presence at the embassy.
Please note! Polish law may require certain legal actions to take the form of a notarial deed in order to be valid (e.g.: authorisation to transfer ownership of real estate or distribution agreement of estate). It is impossible for a consul to attest the signature on this kind of document which you drafted yourself.
How much does it cost?
- The visa fee is 1084 THB.
- Consular fees should be paid upon submitting your application at the Consular Section.
- Accepted forms of payment: cash.
- The final amount of the fee will be determined during the visit after analyzing the submitted documents.
- More information about the payment is available here: Consular fees.
What is the waiting time?
Up to 7 days.
How to appeal?
If the attestation is refused, the consul will issue a decision. You can appeal to the Minister of Foreign Affairs within 7 days. The appeal is lodged through the consul who had issued the decision.
