Does anyone have any experience in transporting stuff to Thailand from Europe? I’m about to move to Thailand for workation (DTV visa), I’m a music producer and sound engineer so obviously I’ll need to bring some gear with me to do my remote work.

How much? Well, here’s the thing: I could technically take the bare minimum that will fit into let’s say 3 flyable cases. That plus personal items would make me fly with at least 7-8 pieces of luggage, and give me only basic stuff. To be comfortable I’d need to bring gear in volume closer to a pallet or preferably two.

Is there any point in trying to organize something like a pallet freight or is it simply not worth it / not possible / not economically viable? Do you actually know someone who could help?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi everyone. This is not related to visa problem but hopefully this group can help. Is there anybody in UK this time and is about to travel to Thailand in few days? I wanted to buy a wetsuit in UK and just send to your address and bring the wetsuit coming to Thailand. I tried to order online and send it international but Thailand is not in their list countries. Thank you.

It looks like Amazon is out of the picture in regards to buying something for Thailand. There are huge import taxes.

If you buy laptop from US online that ships to Thailand using FedEx, do you have to pay import duty?

Has anyone had a bank card sent via regular mail to Thailand? Just wondering if people think it’s safe to do so. Obviously I’ll check about registered mail/tracking with my bank in Australia. Thanks 🙏
