Basically i ordered a phone overseas that via DHL and customs said to DHL that this requires an NBTC license, so DHL is unable to clear the item.

I asked NBTC they said can not issue an import license because this variant is not on their database. I asked to send it back NBTC said then I would need an export license.

NBTC said they can issue an export license to send to another country but DHL said no because it's stuck in customs.

I contacted my lawyer friend here and he said after making some calls that it would cost more than the item, 20K THB so not too pursue it.

I also contacted some brokers there only few said that they can clear it but with fees exceeding the price of the item.

What to do?

Hello! This might be a long-shot but would love someone's input if they knew the answer or knew someone who might know the answer!

I am opening a coffee shop and I would like a specific drink concentrate from America. I have friends coming to visit who are willing to pack it into their extra suitcase and save me $300 on shipping. However, they (or I) need to declare the goods in order to pay the import tax so that I can use it as a legitimate item and expense for my cafe. Does anyone know how to declare goods from America? And if so, does it need to be done by me or by the person who brings the items in their suitcase at the airport? If not at the airport, then where else could I declare them?

Thank you in advance for anyone who is able to help!

Hi, I really enjoy this group very informative. I am having a problem trying to find information about martial arts weapons, what is legal and what is illegal have been reading through the Thai government laws and they mostly talk about gun laws.

I have tried now for a week and still little info, if someone can help point me in the right direction much appreciated.

I have been practicing for over 40 years and have a vast collection and would like to bring them with me when I make the move, some I have had since I was 12 years old, again thanks for any and all help.

Hello

I have a situation I hope I can be helped with. I've already done 1 border run and a second 30 day extension. My visa expires Feb 17. My wife's son is getting his Visa and had his interview this past Monday. We were asked for more paperwork which is now in transit. Customs retained his passport and he was told if this paperwork is sufficient his passport along with his Visa will be returned and he would be accepted into America. The paperwork isn't the problem. reliable sources assured me that what I'm getting is more than sufficient. My issue is whether or not it will happen before Feb 17 in which case there will be no issues. My legal advisor said I should go to immigration in Chiang Mai with my paperwork from the embassy and ask for a 2 week extension so as to comply with customs and not have any troubles. She also stated that this is a familiar scenario with customs and should not be a problem. Any advice on my issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Shipping a package from the states. Has anyone shipped a pair of shoes sized box from USA? What was the cost approximately? It’s a pair of used running shoes so no value. But can’t find shoes big enough here to run in…trying to judge if it’s worth it.
