This service versus ordering from DBD yourself
DBD is the official source. If you can use the Thai or English official sites, pay in the way they accept, and manage exceptions yourself, you should. This page states what you pay us for instead.
Official documents are issued or certified by Thailand's Department of Business Development (DBD). We provide document retrieval, processing, and secure delivery. We are an independent service provider and are not affiliated with or part of DBD.
Official source: DBD Thai e-Service

Answers before you start
A comparison of retrieving documents yourself on official DBD services versus paying this independent service to handle the request.
Use it when you are deciding whether the service fee is worth it for an overseas team.
Who issues the certificate?
DBD issues or certifies the official files in both paths. We do not issue government documents.
Who is cheaper in official fees?
DBD. You pay the government fee plus your own time. Our listed prices are service prices and are higher than the raw official fee.
What do you add?
English-first package choice, international checkout, company confirmation, staff submission to the correct service, waiting-period tracking, quality control, and a secure download.
When should I use DBD myself?
When you have a Thai login path that works, you know which package to pick, you can pay the official fee, and you can resolve English-data exceptions.
When is the service a better fit?
When the requester is overseas, the form names are unfamiliar, both Thai and English files are needed, or the team wants a tracked, auditable delivery.
Do you beat DBD on speed?
Not as a promise. We add an operational buffer and still wait on DBD. We do reduce time lost to the wrong product or the wrong entity.
Do you compete with CompanyData or law firms?
Directories sell search and exports. Law firms sell advice. Wave 1 sells official-document retrieval. Those are different jobs.
Will you use official logos to look like DBD?
No. We do not use government emblems or imply endorsement.
Can I still verify the file on DBD after buying here?
Yes. Use DBD's official verification for the English certificate where offered. That independence is the point.
What do you not offer that DBD or a law firm might?
We do not run the government account for you as a public portal, and we do not write legal opinions, apostilles, or courtroom evidence binders in Wave 1.
