Question for people who have brought pets to Thailand from USA. I was wondering what the process was like with airlines + Bangkok airport regarding pet docs. We’ve been planning to bring our two cats (indoor, never go outside) and had read through all the requirements (shots, import permit, health certificate, etc.) but just recently had our process brought to a halt by the vet that we had gone to originally.

We leave in less than two weeks but now the vet is saying they won’t do the health certificate unless we go get another round of shots and then wait 21 days, which is past our departure date and all of our flights + accomodations are non-refundable and already booked.

We have certificates and receipts of their vaccinations for rabies + feline panleukemia from last month but it seems like there’s a chance that even with a new vet we might not be able to get the health certificate in time.

From what I read about most things in thailand, it sounds like certain laws are followed very strictly while others are more loosely followed / can be solved with paying a fee and talking and I was curious what it’s like for pet import. Thanks in advance.

What other vehicle besides cash would be excepted at Bangkok Bank? US cashier's check or? I already have an account there and I know about Wise. And what's the maximum I can bring in without declaring is it 10 or 20K US. Thanks

Anyone ever brought frozen meat back with you? I am assuming that butchers can make a whole sealed with dry ice package, but I fly from San Francisco to Chiang Rai and it's often close to 30 hours..

I want to start this question with a statement. I have experienced this group as one tha truly and consistently makes efforts to be helpful with clear responses.

This is an everything else question. I have a friend in Thailand who has a 16 year old son starting a tech program to become a fire fighter. He would greatly benefit from having a lap to and the family cannot afford one. I am in the US and just happen to have a very serviceable spare lap top that would do all he needs. It is even set up with a Thai keyboard. School starts for this young man in May.

Can someone give me counsel about how to best get it from here to there. I have read things about VAT, customs and shipping things with a battery that have me confused and a bit gun shy. I have checked with my Thai friends here and no one is going to Thailand for a while. Otherwise, I would just send it with them and have them mail it to mt friend's son once they arrived.

Any responses will be gratefully received. You could respond here, or even better, you could message me on Facebook. My name is Steven Mussack

Hi Friends, I want to bring a 20’ or 40’ container of my household goods from USA to Thailand. Just stuff I have owned for years and impossible or expensive to replace here. I have heard that if I get a work permit I can import my household stuff without paying tariffs/taxes. I feel that the right agent can get this done smoothly and with little or no tariffs/taxes. Do any of you know who can do it?

Okay time for another rookie question. Is there a dollar amount that I am expected to be in possession of when I'm going through customs in Thailand? Are they looking for a financial statement to see if I can travel?
