Customs tax for personal clothing, and households stuff on DTV?: The old rules state that if you have a work permit or some sort of visa to stay long term in thailand, you can avoid paying customs tax

I'm just shipping one box with used clothing, an air tight / vacuumed wrapped pillow, and some random cables and such

Less than $100 in value at most.

Will they tax me? Because one time I shipped my Debit card to Thailand and they made me pay 30 baht to receive it (why?)

Import Clearance for Household items: we (both hold dtv) want to bring personal items like tv, fridge, steamcooker, silverware, linens, a lamp etc into Thailand coming from Malaysia. Via Landroute/by small Truck.

Has anybody experience for customs clearance in this specific case (ONLY DTV- connected!!)

All stuff is used and personal etc. Please NOOOO general advice, i googled it all and had many calls already with customs. I ask for real life experience from dtv holders only.

to be clear: this is NOT about things you fly in in a suitcase.

Have you had any experience shipping your personal belongings from usa to Thailand? There's a DHL store close to where I will be living in Thailand, I'm considering shipping clothes, footwear, and golf clubs from USA to Thailand. What do you think?

Hi all. I brought 2 Rolex watches with me as personal belonging 6 months ago into Thailand from UK. As I live here I wanted the set with me. My dad shipped the empty boxes recently but the depot is holding the package as they want to see whats inside. How do I go about getting them safely? The boxes are not worth much. Do I say dad sent a gift over? I dont really want problems if they suspect I have the watches and suspect im selling.
