Anyone ever shipped a 20ft container on a retirement visa? And no I don't need stupid comments in the line of, leave all your stuff at home! If you don't know or you just want to be annoying don't comment!
Reason why I'm asking is according to the moving company only people on a 1 year work permit can ship containers free of duty
Customs Duty - Does anyone know what personal possessions items (arrived by sea in container) duty is applicable to for someone who arrives from UK on a non-immigrant O visa with the intention of retiring? I thought I read somewhere that there is a very small list of items to which duty applies but customs seem to be charging duty on everything. Customs in Bangkok were provide my passport which shows the non-O stamp on it.
