[carlitos_way]

Does anyone know the dates the Thai post office's are closed & open again over the thai new year ??

cheers

Most of them are closed on 13 14 and 15

There a a few that stay open every day, even holidays

The post office on Ramkampaeng (sp) near the mall at soi 19

is open 365 days a year from 10am to 9 pm, guaranteed.

You might want to give Thai post a bell and ask for the one

closest to you that might stay open.

Try using the mail box outlets, one in Carrefour ON-NUT and one on Phrom Pong station. They charge a little more more but no 30minutes wait.
