My sister went to send a birthday present of a t-shirt and pair of pants for my daughter from the UK. Woman she spoke to at the post office told her Thailand didn't allow to send them and wouldn't accept the parcel, she told her to ask The Thai Embassy not sure she knew what she was talking about because she told her just come back to the front of the queue and I'll serve you straight away. Anyone know of anybody else this has happened to, emailed the embassy for her but no reply so far.

First Ive heard of any such restriction.

 

Have you checked the Royal Mail website ?

I think last year there were some restrictions on the entry of international parcels due to covid but believe that to have been lifted a while back

Thanks for the replies I don't think she had a clue really my sister being in Newcastle and being told to go and ask the Thai Embassy and come back to the front of the queue as if it was just round the corner. I'll give the embassy a few days to reply before I try anything else. She sends her a present every year birthday and Christmas and never been a problem even through Covid.

I got brother in Glasgow to send M&S pyjamas for my grand children last Christmas. Royal Mail counter staff did not bat an eyelid.

Two books arrived that a mate sent me from the UK today, no problem. I've also ordered clothes for my wife and had them sent here from the UK many times, again with no problem. Make sure you get the codes correct for the customs forms too!
