Batteries are difficult as hell to send or receive here as well.

You can just hide them in a dead elephant.

Here's an idea. When you put up a story about "7 prohibited items" that should not be posted, why not list those 7 items in the story to make the headline mean something!

 

If you would have clicked on the link at the bottom of the OP:

 

Full story: https://www.thaipbsworld.com/senders-of-parcels-warned-not-to-post-7-prohibited-items-or-face-legal-action/

 

You would have found those 7 items listed in the linked story.

Have you tried wrapping up a dead elephant and taking it to the post office  as this presumably would be ok as it is not a live animal ? ????????

I note "banknotes" so is it illegal to send a small monetary gift in a birthday card by EMS??

I tried it once, a mere 100THB bill from Germany to Thailand. It did not arrive.

Do not worry too much about it, any prosecutions are likely to be thrown out of court due to the lack of evidence.

 

Though I doubt any bank note posted would get to its intended destination either.

No, no no!  Vibrators have batteries - dildos do not!  (..er.. or so I'm told....)

I don’t know if this applies everywhere but I tried posting a computer motherboard to Australia for repair and Thai Post said no computers. I tried to explain what it was and even undid the package but they refused to accept it, has anyone else come across this.

Our charity had a raffle, including a prize of a donated centenary watch. Winner was back in the UK. Thai Post would not take it as it had a battery in it!! ????????????

Fiat money.  Who knew?

Its a bit selfish but I honestly worry more about legal post arriving to my address than if my local neighbour sends live elephants with parcel post????

theres probably an embargo on advanced technology for Australia.

For some reason they forgot to mention medication. IE. ED meds, steroids and the like. Cheap and available in Thailand without a prescription.

So 6 prohibited items is ok then?

That will be about half their business going overseas or from Lazada.

Only the non-Thai fakes. Thai online scammers will continue as usual, just as they do on the streets selling fake trademarked wear and accessories.

I hope ‘narcotics’ doesn’t include Viagra or Cialis

I would never send cash in the mail no matter how small... ATM transfer or similar method is much faster/cheaper & reliable.

Send the card with a footnote... check your bank balance.

Start with the title of the thread "Senders of parcels........

Please do not hesitate to contact Thailand post should you require any further assistance

 

ROFL - has anyone here ever tried to contact them? It's a government office. You call, someone answers and throws the receiver down on the table and goes back to drinking their tea.

 

I was once asked by one Aliexpress vendor to check after their parcel was tracked as far as Bangphli post office. Thailand post has extremely efficient customer service - customers give up wasting their time very quickly.

True enough. We didn't need sandpaper to beat the Poms.
