When you need an interpreter in Phuket
On the beach or in a café, English and a phone translator are enough. But at a bank, the police or a property deal, one wrong word costs money, time and nerves. There you need someone who knows Thai and understands how local procedures work.
🏠 Property
Buying and renting condos and villas, negotiations with the developer, agent or management company, a visit to the land office. I interpret and explain what you're signing.
🏦 Banks
Opening an account, bank questions about documents and source of funds. If the account is already frozen, my company UNBLOCK PRO ASIA handles it.
🛂 Immigration
Visa extensions, 90-day reports, questions from the officer at the immigration office.
🚓 Police and accidents
A motorbike or car accident, theft, rental fraud, reports and statements. I help you get your position across accurately.
🏥 Hospitals
Doctor's appointments, check-ups, hospitalisation, dealing with the insurance company.
🤝 Business
Renting premises, negotiations with partners and contractors, contracts.
Three ways to work in Phuket
- Online by video. A call to a bank, clinic, developer, landlord or office. I join via WhatsApp, Telegram or Zoom, and the issue is solved without a trip.
- Document translation. Contracts, bank letters, certificates, statements. You send a photo or scan and I translate it. Certified translation is done through partners. Learn more →
- A trip to Phuket. When being there in person is unavoidable: a property deal, the police, a hospital, important negotiations. I fly in from Bangkok according to an agreed plan.
A representative in Phuket while you're away from Thailand
If you're abroad, I can act on the ground on your behalf:
- view a condo or villa before you buy or rent, film a video and ask the seller questions;
- meet the agent, developer or management company;
- collect or hand over documents, check on renovation or other work;
- accompany your relatives or staff to an important meeting.
How a trip to Phuket works
- Tell me which meetings you need, where in Phuket and on which dates.
- I draw up a plan and an estimate: a trip usually takes 1–2 days. We agree the exact cost, tickets and accommodation before work starts.
- Payment: 100% before work starts, larger tasks in stages.
- Meetings: I interpret on site, and after each meeting we go over the next steps.
