Hi all, I read somewhere and wanted to verify. If you are looking to enter Thailand to retire on a DTV or Elite visa are you allowed a shipment of personal items duty/tax free if it arrives within 90-days of your entry or something to that effect? We are looking to ship a "D" container with some personal items and wanted to seek some clarification. Thanks

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.

Hello, looking to finally bring my golf clubs to Pattaya. I have a 2 bag allowance unusually, so I thought I’d bring my clubs that are rotting away in a garage in the UK. They are very old and battered, will I need to declare to customs and pay duty? Thanks

Has anyone had any experience yet importing personal items in to Thailand from home country? Due to staying long term with their DTV

Hi All

Serious question

I have a lovely/ tall/ mechanical Grandfather clock that I would like to keep when we move to Thailand

BUT, my wife has just asked how will the wood (that it is made from) react in a hot humid climate

Yes I appreciate we can use a dehumidifier/ possibly the settings from an Air Con unit to lower the humidity but does anyone have any idea or experience how such a wooden feature would react under such circumstances especially if it was left for 3 months at a time without any humidity control

Thanks in advance

Hope you all enjoy your weekend

Hi, awaiting approval for LTR pensioner visa. Looks like it's taking longer than we first thought. Hopefully get it OK soon.

Does anyone know what duty and taxes are charged on shipping personal possessions to Thailand once a long term visa has been approved? I'm hoping to ship some belongings over but need to have an idea of costs.

Hi! I have questions about import duties and customs. The mover told us that guardian visa and education visa holder are not exempt from import duties and customs. Do you know which visa will be exempt from those?

Hi folks, I'd like to ship my laptop from Germany to Thailand. I am already here. Any recommendations how to do that a) save b) cheap and c) what paperwork is needed?

I am thankful for any advise!

Not Visa related, holiday travel. Ok to travel with 'gift-wrapped' packages or customs needs to open and inspect ?

I have electric appliances both ”big” and small in China. Sending stuff via post to Thailand. Can you get the end of electrical cords switched to work in Thailand? Is it Worth it? How cheap is this? Just needing to know what is worth it to send from one country to another.
