Why South Africa needs BOTH notarisation and NAATI translation

DHA South Africa requires the Notarized Translation Certificate to be sworn before a qualified Notary (or Notarial Services Attorney in Thailand) AND, when the underlying document is not in English, to be translated by a NAATI-credentialed translator. Skipping either step is the #1 reason migration packs are returned. NYC handles both in one workflow: the same attorney who notarises also coordinates the NAATI translator, so seals, jurat statements and translation certificates line up with South Africa's expected format.
