ups will eventually settle with thai customs. They will send you a bill, that they not so politely tell you that you have 30 days to pay before they add 10% as late fee. Idk if that's Apr or flat cost. Make sure, that if you've already made any payments to/through ups thailand, that you have screenshot or other receipts.
As far as letting the package go, if you haven't provided any identification numbers, I can't see how they would track you. Save looking up the return address
Resolve it quick. Thai customs will also charge a storage fee, and they'll get to your package when they bloody well feel like it. It's only 3 dollars a day, but if they hold it for two months...
yes, I think you're right. I'm not looking for a pay out, and certainly never expected one. I'm not "outraged" as many here seem to think. I was just curious about the laws in Thailand. Whether visitors are treated differently.
they didn't ask me, and I didn't see anyone else asking. But I came prepped. I had 3x the req amount in a travel ziploc bag. The immigration officer just said, oh, I see you've been on the internet
