How can I receive mail while living in Thailand?

I use Anytime Mailbox. They scan mail, shred, and can forward via USPS or UPS. Use the forward for important items. Good luck.

Try DHL

If you are from the north pole you can get one of Santa's helpers to deliver it. If you live on the moon you can get the Indians to bring it back for you when they go to visit.

I guess it matters where you live.

I am from the US and I use a service US Global Mail. Because I am from the US I can do that and I don't have to rely on Santa's helpers.

Just a note of caution. I have the Thai wife, I am US citizen. We stopped sending mail to my wife’s village in Thailand because none of the first 20 letters we sent to the family in Thailand were received by our family members. Zero.

The Thailand Postal Service is notorious for disposing of mail they deem not important to deliver. There is a postal worker near our village with hundreds of our family photos on the postal worker’s living room walls. Currently, we live in wife’s village for the US winter and we have received 1 piece of mail in the 5 years we have had our house.

The Thailand Postal Service follows no rules. Each fiefdom does it’s own thing. I hope your results are better than mine.

That's very difficult in Thailand. Here most people sit on palm trees or riding water buffalos. Some are eating insects even. Don't come. It's dangerous and disgusting. They don't even speak English but something they call Thai. 😳😵‍💫😱

Put anything important on email and paperless that's what I did now I get half of the crap mail I used to get plus no more stamps

Good luck … its a nightmare

I have my mail sent to a friends address and he scans the letters and then sends the letter as a PDF file by email to me

Hi Larry, you did not mention which country you come from. So that could have different replies to your question. In Sourh Africa our national postal system does not exist , so using a courier is best.

Whilst in Thailand we have had absolutely no problems receiving and sending mail and parcels with their postal system. Works like a charm.

Stupid post of the week 🙄

Have an address !

Normal mail service delivery. Unless you are receiving something that the mail sorter wants in which care you'll never see it again. 😂 Beware when sending parcels or receiving parcels through the mail you might get slugged with tax. In some cases the tax exceeds the value of the goods.

I get mail addressed to my condo. Works like Australia post.

Use paper, envelopes and a postal service. Advice is for free....

@Larry *********

change your address

Bluetooth

After the post the other day suggests courier services otherwise upto 2 months to never

Forward you new address to everyone, takes a bit longer with thai postal service but you get it eventually

Forwarding address

They have a postal service

Same as anywhere else.
