UPS has notified me i need to show at 120 Years Building and register as an import agent or get an import license just to get a 2 Ib package of 40 personal single use eye drops, 2 boxes of just for men, and 2 UV BLOCKER sets of armsleeves my nephew sent me from my apartment in LA. Please, somebody who’s been though this, send the quickest most stress free method of navigating this. BESIDES Thai Customs, UPS is also trying to get paid extra in this process. I had no idea having a small box of personal provisions was gonna come to this. And if i choose to just not bother with this and walk away from less than $70 us worth of stuff, UPS’ charge is nearly $300 to “destroy” the package. You talk about a Catch-22!!! What does an Import License even cost, never mind there’s MORE steps to follow just to get this small quantity of my own personal hygiene products in hand.

Thanks to this group for all the great information relating getting our visa squared away. It was easier than I thought it would be.

On a totally separate question, can anyone give their best advIce on how to get a letter delivered from the US to Chiang Mai as fast as possible and ensuring it actually arrives. I’ve scoured the internet and read a vast array of comments regarding UPS, FedEx, DHL etc. Any advice is much appreciated.

Anyone have an idea of how much it would.be sto send a parcel from.usa to Thailand

Hi, a quick question if I may? Is there international post from Thailand these days? People are telling me there is no air mail available.
