Thanks to this group for all the great information relating getting our visa squared away. It was easier than I thought it would be. 

On a totally separate question, can anyone give their best advIce on how to get a letter delivered from the US to Chiang Mai as fast as possible and ensuring it actually arrives. I’ve scoured the internet and read a vast array of comments regarding UPS, FedEx, DHL etc. Any advice is much appreciated.

Signature required!

FedEx seems to work better than the others, from my experience.

Ideally, have it delivered to an office somewhere where there is always someone around.

If possible, if requested, provide a local number to a friend or someone who speaks Thai.

When one of my banks replaces my credit card, it takes nearly a month, I think they ship UPS Economy, or whatever. However, most of my mail gets here in a few days and costs about $100USD.
