TLDR : Answer Summary

The EMS service is currently suspended due to COVID-19 cases at the mail transit facility, affecting international mail for at least 14 days, as of the beginning of May 2021. However, DHL is still operational. Reports suggest that Thai Post may have resumed some services, but primarily surface shipping to international locations, rather than airmail.

There were covid-19 cases at the mail transit facility so they suspended international mail for at least 14 days, starting 4 days ago.
