Container Import Duties (moving to TH)

[stament]

I'm going to be moving to Th and don't think I will qualify for the excise free import of personal and second hand goods, therefore most likely I will need to lay duty on this.

 

Has anyone got any recent experience of his much duty they paid on a 20ft container? I read a Thai visa arrived from 2005 but prices have gone up significantly since then.

 

I understand extra taxes are payable if you bring multiple items of the sand thing such as TVs. However I will only be bringing one of each.

 

Thanks in advance.

i used a 20 footer from Uk in 2008...

Had to pay 10k baht for clearance thu Lam Chabang port.

My Uk delivery was  D D which means delivered domicile....that is home to home...also included was insurance...cost me 2,700 G B P for container....used John Masons in Liverpool.

I had 53 boxes delivered to my condo...

All household effects are duty free...

Are you referring to the green sponsored search options relating to containers and shipping?

Hi Essox Essox,

 

I am new to the forum, and I am wondering about the cost v the import duties and hassle.  I see you say that household goods are exempt, I have .pdf from shipping companies which clearly states that you pay duties on everything due to being non immigrant O-A visa, can you give advice about where you have got this information from please?

 

Many thanks.
