Canada Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hi there. I have been here for a while and it looks like I am staying. How do you go about bringing in some personal goods from home? What is the cost associated with this? Can someone direct me to the right person or agency for this? Thank you. I posted here because you "visa" forum guys seem pretty knowledgeable about stuff related to staying here long term. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howzat Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Depends how much you want to bring. I omported all my UK home furniture etc througl a local UK forwarding agent in who came to the house and packed everything up including furniture which all went into a container and was sent by see and delivered door to door about 6 weeks later. No duty on personal effect. Suprised how easy it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 There is duty on HHE unless you are exempted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurnell Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 A splendid company like AGS Four Winds can assist. Just google them for Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathanpattaya Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) I shipped all my remaining personal effects from the UK last year. Three months later, AGS Four Wind received the two wooden crates containing about forty standard packing boxes, plus some other oversized items. Door to door, including insurance and a mere 5000 Baht for Customs at Laem Chabang, the total cost was ₤1200.

lopburi3 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Returning Thai after a year overseas - working on a one year extension of stay with shipment within first six months are the two most common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
