Hi, a quick question if I may? Is there international post from Thailand these days? People are telling me there is no air mail available.

TLDR : Answer Summary
Currently, international post and airmail services are limited from Thailand, with many users reporting that traditional postal services are unavailable. While some courier companies like DHL and FedEx are still operational, they may experience delays and higher costs due to additional measures. Some users have successfully sent packages via these couriers, and EMS (Express Mail Service) is also mentioned, though details on its availability are unclear. It is advisable to consult specific carriers regarding their services and potential delays.

Fedex works. I got some important cards sent to me which arrived on Monday. Pricey as hell and slower than usual. Think they have decontamination stops. One day wait in Japan and one day+ in local Thai office from Saturday morning until Monday.

weeks to clear customs after arriving in Thailand—instead of anticipated next day delivery. But it arrived...though pricey to mail and also had to pay import duty.

I saw a UPS pick-up slip from Thailand to USA.

I have a friend who has mail waiting for him, stuck in San Francisco.

I think the question is which carriers, departure, destination.

I have heard rumor USPS (US Government postal) is not making here while private companies (FedEx, UPS) does make it here. At the same time I have seen evidence that UPS is going to the USA, and I have heard rumor that no body is taking mail to the USA.

My advice -- listen to someone who has experience. Specifically to your destination.
