ubonjoe Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I doubt there will be any post office open on the 13th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMMCB Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Try the airport post office. Usually open. I saw a sign at CM Immigration that it will be closed on 13th, 23rd and 26th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 It's a public holiday. Would be surprised it any office in town is open. Airport could be an exception. Could... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chingmai331 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 What public holiday occurs on 13 October? Banks, govt offices, beer shops all closed. What nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The government declared October 13th (the one-year anniversary of the death of Rama IX) a national holiday long ago and it was all over the news and in the newspapers (both Thai and English). I would suggest you not offer any comment about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're just agencies and depend on an actual PO for service. 99% sure the CNX airport PO will be open. (Not Airport Plaza) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektrified Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Just now, KhunBENQ said: Almost and depends on what you call city Not a single 365 post office in a 200 km radius from me. O.K. there are exceptions... But we've been round and round on this one with many people swearing every P.O. is closed on the biggest Buddhist (or other holidays) of the year, and then several members from all over the Kingdom posting copies of their bills with the date on it, proving otherwise. Personally, I've never seen Festival branch closed - ever (the government branch inside, not the private sub-station outside near the exit on the Doi Saket Road).

KhunBENQ Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 A Thailand post office: Don't tell me that those booths at Central or elsewhere are post offices. 365: name the post offices that are open on Songkran. Now it would be a good time for the thread starter to come back and explain what his postal business on Friday 13th is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elektrified Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 My wife just read that on the 26th of this month, that every post office and every Central Department Store in the Kingdom will be closed. But she said that she has not read anything about the 13th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMBob Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Although a bit late in the day perhaps for some, the Post Office at Kad Suan Kaew (well, actually in the north end of the Lotus Hotel building) is actually open today. Just posted a letter there an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on the "letter" post office symbol in the center of this map to see photos of the 2nd level postal station at Central Festival. Located behind the AIZ and across from Sportswear store near the southern lifts in the small corridor leading to south car park entrance: https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1f2M3V9dd6dwcdfj1iv1pqVEr-9E&hl=en&ll=18.80661419999999%2C99.0181566&z=20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know at the moment as they don't announce which one(s) will be open until a few days before. But, I can assure you there will be one or two open on Songkran; probably Airport and/or CF.
