hi

  does anyone know what restrictions there might be if i wanted to bring my shot gun into Thailand.

i have all the requisit licences for the uk but can not find out if i can bring it to thailand.

the embassey in the u.k. when asked seem to think i was some sort of arms dealer.

any help would be appreciated

On paper you can import a firearm but it must have a permit issued by the police first so in effect don't believe it is too viable if you are not living here and a member of the police shooting club.  But have never checked closely so maybe someone has a positive experience?

Unless your firearm is something special and it's value is very very high don't do it, the paper work involved is horrendous.

Why not join a local shooting club here and go through the normal proceedures to register a firearm you buy "legally".

One more thing you need to be on a non "b" visa at least and have your thai firearm licence stamped every 90 days with the police, which in it's self creates suspistion ith the the boys in brown !

Good Luck
