Hi! I have questions about import duties and customs. The mover told us that guardian visa and education visa holder are not exempt from import duties and customs. Do you know which visa will be exempt from those?
Answer summary
The post inquires about import duties and customs exemptions for particular visa holders in Thailand, specifically mentioning guardian and education visa holders. The comments clarify that only work visa holders and diplomats are exempt from such duties.
