We Ship a 15 m. Container with a company from Holland. With all our belongings include our Antique furniture, for 3 years now. It was a very skilled company, not so expensive and they took care of everything including packing and delivered to our door in a remote area of Thailand. It took 4 weeks before it arrive here and only two drinking glasses where broken.

i am sure you will find a similar company in France.

Hello, Brayka thank you, what was the name of the company maybe they can help me or maybe they have partners in France???

This is kind of funny to see that those who travels don't realise that even if it's cheap it is so easy to run out of cash, you spend your money so easu=ily and before you even realise that BAM you don"t have money anymore

I searched with Google and found a government web-page with the legal details, very helpful.

 

At that time about 10-years ago, and probably not changed since, one is allowed one surface shipment (sea) and one (smaller) air shipment. I used the sea shipping method with a 20-feet container; not that I could fill it up, but because it cheaper and more safe, than individual parcels.

 

The trick seemed to be a very detailed packing list – with model and serial numbers of all electronic and like items – as described by the authorities, and stated with fair and reasonable values for each item or package (I hand-wrote the values on my printed packing list).

 

I used a shipping company to ship the container cif. Bangkok, including "total loss" insurance, which is cheap; but not other damage insurance, which is expensive, and I was told furthermore difficult to claim any damage from. The shipper packed the container, and filled the empty space with air-balloons so everything was steadily packed.

 

I found a local Thai company to arrange for custom clearance and domestic transportation, and offloading including bringing the empty container back to Bangkok. I paid minor duty and little v.a.t. – there will always be little charged, I was told – and I paid "overtime" to customs, for working in normalk morning day time; that I was recommended to do, and they opened the container door, a corner of one parcel, and closed the door, and calculated the minor fees probably from something in my detailed packing list.

 

Everything arrived safe without any damages.

 

Cost will be depending from where you ship – you can get more than one quote, and ship cif. at that's cheaper – and local costs also depending of domestic transport. Almost 10-years ago I had my stuff moved (after being stored in a warehouse in may country little more than a year). From Scandinavia, including storage, to cif. Bangkok was about $8,000 for 20-feet container. Custom clearance, various fess and domestic transport in Thailand around 50,000 baht.

 

Hope this info may help you, and wish you good luck...

Thanks a lot! actually this might help!!!!!

I used a transport  company who provided a container, packed and shipped the lot. All arrived safely, though it cost me 30,000 baht to get it out of customs - this was when the baht was 70/£ so it was not too bad.

Do you remember the name of the company please?

Better off selling everything in France and buying new in Thailand.

Furniture is quite cheap here.

Noooo, I really can't!

Some of them are priceless this is why I am looking to transport them --'

I wanted to know does the visa start at the date you arrive into the territory or do I have to respect the date written on the visa???

Depends on your nationality and the country you are living right know, it can make a difference
