Using track and trace my parcel left the UK on the 4th ,but just says in transit ,nothing about arriving here in Thailand ,anyone else had this problem?

I sent a parcel from local post office 50km south of Khon Kaen to UK was told takes about 2 weeks, left Thailand the following day arrived UK 9 days later, no info about transit in UK sent to Thai post office.

Are you trying to track it on the Thai Post site?

I have one that was sent on the same day...this delay has been fairly usual over the last few months. My guess is that they are waiting until they have a full shipment and then off it goes. If you are lucky your parcel was one of the last in and you receive it after about ten days, or like us ours was one of the first to arrive after the last shipment left and will take at least three weeks to get here.

It's annoying but I'd give it a bit longer. Someone sent me a document from the UK using international track & signed last month. I had to wait 2 weeks between the "leaving the UK" and "arrived at Laksi" status. I had assumed it had been lost.

I recently had two parcels sent from Australia using EMS both took about two weeks rather than a couple of days.

You have to understand these are not normal times and without regular flights you have to expect delays.

True, not only that, you have the huge increase in volume due to Christmas online purchases and gift sending etc etc.

I might mention that the 'whole world' is not functioning properly now days.... So don't expect anything to be normal..... I am trying to help a Thai friend get a shipping container shipment out of the USA now....  Container availability is about 2 or 3 months delayed compared to previous shipments   

Listening to local news in Los Angeles, One of the busiest shipping ports in the world, reports are that about 30% of the truck drivers that haul these containers in and out..... are off work because of the virus..... POSTAL facilities are probably similar WORLD-WIDE presently...... I wish you the best BUT having patience is necessary at this time more than ever before....

British Airways are not flying to Thailand. I don't know about other airlines. As there are less flights it takes longer. There might be a requirement that packages have to be in transit at least 14 days before accepted here. Et al...

 

Patience.

I have a parcel that left China for Thailand on the 1st and is also still in transit.

 

Not much unusual these days...it seems that custom agents have their hands full thanks to increasing online shopping, among other things...

I had a parcel take three weeks to arrive from the UK to CM last month. When tracking says 'item leaving the UK' it's usually sat at Langley waiting for an available flight. I did some digging and found out they have a huge backlog of parcels waiting to leave the UK. It'll show up eventually.

[Jaxxper]

A recent parcel and two letters took 3 weeks from the UK to get here. I agree there is a dark spot in the visibility using the tracker(s). The tracking on mine got updated the day they were delivered.....

[liddelljohn]

I sent an express  letter from UK with documents for my wife ,,it arrived in Thailand 5 days after leaving UK but did not come to her for signed receipt until 3 weeks had passed

[DiDiChok]

As others have recommended, bide your time.  I had a parcel that took two weeks to leave the UK and then nothing further was heard about it for six weeks on Thailand Posts' track and trace web site.  Suddenly, it was reported by track and trace as appearing at Laksi and reached me in Lamphun a few days later.  I too thought it had gone walkies but there is simply a Christmas .Covid-19 backlog holding things up somewhere.

BAW 9 appears to be operating 5 days a week Heathrow to Suvarnabhumi.  

 

[lavender19]

Same happened to me

Said parcel had left UK but was really still in Heathrow. Took 6weeks to leave UK but once it arrived in Thailand it took 2 days

[bert bloggs]

Any news yet? As i am waiting for something as well,but some xmas cards have arrived.

I had 2 parcels sent to me from a family member in the uk on 20th November from the same post office both with track and trace. The first parcel arrived within 2 weeks and the other just arrived on 22nd December taking over a month. Track and trace was incomplete for latest parcel which was just a single shirt. 

[ivor bigun]

Anyone still having problems ,still no news of my ems package that left uk on 4 dec. Thai track and trace is what i am using

[Nout]

The UK postal system is the Kiss of Death, especially at this time of the year. Don't hold your breath. I'm not. I'm waiting on a CC my bank sent to my UK address two weeks ago. Covid and Christmas .. a perfect combination for the British Post not to deliver...

[tyler28]

I ordered something from Ebay, sent from the UK via "Royal Mail." The tracking says "leaving UK" on December 4. No updates since.
