Drew3223 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Hi all, Anyone have experience of how long it generally takes? International letter AIR costs 49 Baht EMS is 1550 Baht On the phone they told me generally 1 week for EMS, 2 weeks for the cheaper service. Wanted ot find out what people own experiences were?

CharlieH Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Inmy experience, currently, the cheaper option will run 3-4 weeks. EMS etc can be as quick as 7 days. It really depends on where it lands and of course where its final destination is. The cheaper option can currently govia Europe or Middle East. Its pot luck as to what plane it gets put on.

Gottfrid Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 You have to go a little bit Sherlock on this. Is it important? What is it for? How will it be received? Have it been the same before? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not remotely off topic. It is quicker, cheaper and environmentally friendly. Also it was to be taken as a suggestion. OP is free to do as he/she please 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan O Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I sent had a letter sent to me regular Post Office on Jan 5 and received it in the USA on Feb 12. If its important I would send it an expedited service. EMS is good but if you have access to FedEX it may be fast and the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can it be off topic when I told the OP the quickest & cheapest way to send a 20 page letter to USA? I bothered because I am trying to help him.

KhunBENQ Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 To/from Germany I use ordinary registered airmail. That's for documents that are not overly time critical. Nothing by ship. I doubt that letters and similar are going by ship whatever form of transport you paid for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) A bit offtopic: I yesterday ordered some supplements from a company in New Jersey (US) to here. A package less then a kilo. Weighs 4.1313 LB. Sent by "Airmail" (sounds like regular postal service) incl. tracking. It's announced for March 13 to 15. Cost about 15 USD. Fairly slow, fairly expensive?

wanderingengine Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Do you need to send the original paper or does the recipient simply need to receive it in the mail? If the latter, you can use docsmit.com to send USPS mail via internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
