Can any give me a rough estimate on how much it would cost to send a 20ft container from Chiang Mai

to Europe.

If anyone has any experience on this subject any info would be much appreciated

Thanks

Depends on where in Europe you send it, whether you pack/load it yourself, whether door to door/door to port.........

http://www.boonmachiangmai.com/service.php I am not sure about boonma if they still have service for seafreight, you can check for info..

this month sea freight to Europe is around 2,000 USD for a 20ft +/- 200 USD depending on port. Will probably increase next month as it has for the previous 6 months.

PM me if you need more details.

You beat me to it, was about to ask this. Could you share any prices that get pm'd

I am waiting for the price and more information, possible tomorrow I will know something more then I will tell you.

Make sure to check with a local import agent every single item you wish to import and assure yourself that he has checked. If you want to import household goods, it might be a big, big deal and hard to find an import agent. Once the container has arrived in BKK, you will have to pass customs and any delay of missing import permits (rug? books? radio? etc...) will cost you money daily in demurrage charges, container rent, fines, etc. It might be that you have to ask for import permits for certain items in three different government offices in BKK and it might take up to one month to obtain them.

I am telling you because of my own painful experience with customs in BKK and my container is stuck for one month now.

Prices for shipping from Europe to Thailand have gone up by 30% and you need to reserve the transport on the vessel 30-60 days in advance.
