Rooo Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Have a look here . Restricted • Live animals – health certificate required along with complete and valid inoculations. Contact nearest embassy to obtain permission. • Plants, foodstuff and seeds– health certificate require. Check with the nearest embassy. • Weaponry and ammunition – permission obtainable from Ministry of Interior. Check with the nearest embassy. • Medication • Foreign currency – any amounts need to be declared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travelmann Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Save yourself a lot of hassle and just bring them in. I have brought many plants into Thailand and I know many Thais who do frequent trips abroad and have brought in many plants especially from Indonesia, Singapore etc. Ditto cash. I have never been stopped in 7 years in fact I think on entering, Thai customs must be the most relaxed in the world. Of course the correct legal way is outlined above, your choice.

seajae Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I have brought in heaps of frangipani, last time 50 odd for myself but before that for growers over here that I bought from for swaps or gifts. Also brought in seeds of various kinds, different plants and a few kilos of aged rib fillet steak, this was all through Bangkok, I just walked through with my bags and no one queried me.
