Notary Public in Udon Thani?

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this question -- but I figure a lot of you guys have experience with local lawyers, processing documents, etc. My wife and I need a notary public that's not too expensive (the U.S. embassy charges $30 for the first document and $20 for the rest!). Any Thai lawyers in Udon Thani who provide that service?

First. I would check with the agency/bank/whatever that needs the notarized signature back in the States, and ask if they will accept a Thai notary.
It's been my experience that some places in the States will accept a Thai notary, but most won't.

Most Thai lawyers are notary's, however their charge is usually 1000+ baht. PM me if you want the name of one I have used.

Thailand is not a signator of the Haigue Convention for whatever that is worth. If it has anything at all to do with the IRS and I suspect any other US gov't agency you will have to use the Embassy as the IRS in particular will not accept any other. My wife just had to go and get her's and the children's passports copied and notorized by the US Embassy so that the IRS will recognize I have a wife and family and refund tax monies. Nope it ain't cheap but I still make out in the long run.

Dear Sgt and Jingjai,

Thank you for your help -- however, I'm pretty sure that I need a U.S.-style notary public. Here's why.

1) I'm dealing with Canadian immigration, not a U.S. private entity. They want U.S.-style notarization, and in my experience it's best to give the immigration folks what they want. A Thai garuda isn't going to cut it.

2) I'm trying to avoid the U.S. embassy -- we have to copy three passports, one visa, one marriage certificate, possibly one marriage certificate translation. That's 130 bucks, for something that would cost $12 dollars in the States. It bugs me . . . All I need is a few more things and it would make sense to fly back to the states and do it there . . .

3) So yes, Jingjai, if you know anyone who does this for a normal price, tell me. But unless it's cheaper than 700 Baht, there's no point . . .

Thanks for your help, guys.

Anyone happen to have current information on this? I need my daughter's permission to fly here from the US notarized and to date no one has ever even asked to see it at the airport ever (about 6 attempts) so I figure a stamp from Thailand is fine in the even someone does ask (flying with my mother, same last name and doubt any problem). My car's in the shop though and probably going to take a cab so prefer to know some place does this and know what to expect rather than roaming around on tuktuks looking.
