Customs in Thailand

When you book a shipment to Thailand, you should keep in mind that, depending on the value and place of origin of your goods, you may have to pay duties and customs when clearing customs. There is an exemption for goods worth less than 1,500 Baht – there are no fees applied to these packages during customs clearance.

In order to make sure that your goods clear customs with the correct fees applied, you must properly complete your customs paperwork – fully declaring the nature and value of your goods is vital.

Collection & delivery

Courier collection

We can collect on the day you book from addresses throughout the UK. But if you don’t want to wait in for our driver why not drop your parcel at a drop-off location? These are shops or other businesses who will take and securely store your package until our driver turns up to collect it. And it’s not just more convenient, it’s also cheaper.

Don’t forget, you need to print out and attach your shipping label before our driver arrives, as express delivery means just that – we can’t wait around.

Courier delivery

If it’s convenient it’s nearly always better to send to someone at the place they work, not least because we deliver between 9am and 7pm on working weekdays, so someone is likely to be there to receive your parcel.

If you do send to a residential address you may incur a small extra charge, which will be included with your quote. This is because residential deliveries fail more often than business ones, costing the courier time and money.

Tracking your delivery to Thailand

We know that it can be stressful sending a parcel halfway around the world, which is why we offer free door-to-door tracking with every shipment. Our package tracking updates on each step of your shipment, so you can keep an eye on exactly where your parcel is whenever you like.

And you may be surprised how many countries your shipment passes through before it gets to Thailand, so track your parcel regularly and see your parcel whizz around the world in record time.

If your package happens to be delayed, or there are any other problems with it, we’ll get in touch with both you and your recipient to explain the problem, and what can be done to rectify it.

Sending gifts to Thailand

When you are sending a gift to Thailand, there is no exemption for packages of any value. Any and all gift shipments will have fees applied during the customs clearance process, though there is still a low value exemption for goods worth less than 1,500 Baht which may still be applied to your shipment.

It’s important to make sure that you properly declare the nature and value of your goods – it’s not enough to just declare that you are sending a ‘Gift’. If you do so, there may be problems in clearing customs, so be more specific such as ‘Gift – Crockery set’

Sending food to Thailand

Something tasty makes a great gift wherever in the world you may be, so it’s no surprise that food is one of Parcelcompare’s most common shipments. We’ve know exactly how to make sure your food delivery arrives safely, so be sure to follow the rules below when you’re planning your shipment.

Please bear in mind that you may need a licence from the Ministry of Health in order to import food into Thailand, so you should get in touch with them before booking your shipment.

So if you want Weetabix for breakfast instead of Chok, or you’d like to send food to a friend in Thailand for when they don’t want Kanom khrok, Parcelcompare makes it simple.

What you can send:

Non-perishable foods

  • Store bought foods with a best before date over 6 months away

  • Items must be in the original manufacturers packaging and unopened

  • The food label needs to list all the ingredients

  • The best before date must be displayed on the packaging

  • Crisp and savory foods, Chocolates and candy, Canned foods, Herbs and Spices in sealed containers, tea bags, Jams and other preserves

What you cannot send:

Perishable foods

  • Foods with a shelf life of less than 6 months

  • Homemade foods or any foods not in the original manufacturers packaging

  • Foods that can spoil in transit.

  • Food in packaging that have been opened

  • Food that does not contain a food label listing the ingredients

Parcel packaging

When you ship your goods halfway around the world, they regularly change hands and may fall victim to the invariable bumps and knocks that come with international postage. To make sure that your goods arrive safely, you need to properly package them.

1. BUY A BOX

A strong box is the first line of defence against bumps and knocks, so be sure to use a new, double corrugated box for every new shipment. Old boxes may have weaknesses that could lead to your box bursting or being crushed in transit.

2. PROTECT YOUR GOODS

Each of your goods should be wrapped individually before being placed in the box. Surround your goods with plenty of packaging material, and make sure that no parts of your goods are touching the walls of your box.

3. SEAL YOUR BOX

Use plenty of packing tape to wrap your box three times in a union flag formation. Pay special attention to the corners and seals, the weakest part of your box. Add your labels so that they are clearly visible, especially the barcode.

Thai public holidays

There’s something uniquely relaxing about a public holiday – and we enjoy them just as much as you do. That’s why our partner carriers don’t make deliveries on bank or public holidays, which can sometimes add a day or two to your delivery time. Keep that in mind when you’re planning your shipment.
