Bringing A Music Keyboard To Thailand

[trouserdept 0]

Hi,

I am planning to visit Thailand for about 3-6 months on a Tourist Visa from UK, and considering bringing my Keyboard with me - i.e. stick in the hold on the plane.

Does anyone know what problems I might have - for example:

- having to pay duty at customs

- being challenged about using it to make money - i.e. someone may think I will be working as a musician but don't have a work visa.

I would not be doing any work as a musician and would plan to just take it home with me at the end of my stay.

Any advice gratefully received

many thanks
