From where?

[Michael Hare]

Depends from where. I find items ordered over the internet from the UK usually take 7-10 days to arrive. But items from the USA seem to take up to 3 weeks, even sending by international parcels priority. For example, I ordered a parcel from the USA on November 6. It was posted on November 6 and reached Bangkok on November 13. It took 5 days to clear customs and was cleared on November 18. Now the tracking has stopped dead.The parcel has not arrived in Ubon. I am trying to find out exactly where it is.

Steve,

I ordered some shirts through Rivers in Ballarat and they arrived within 1 week of the order placed. The only thing was that I had to pay 800 baht customs/tax at the post office.

The topic of international mail delivery has been discussed in different threads.

Examples for Thailand to Germany are two (!) weeks.

Isan is not a specific problem.

A letter needs one day from my Amphoe post office to Suvarnabhumi airport.

BUT: then it takes 6 (!) days until "accepted" in Frankfurt Germany and then another 5 (!) days to the government office in Germany.

The 6 days from Bangkok to Frankfurt (accepted): assumptions are, that the mail is stuck at the airport office in Germany.

A friend regularly receives parcels from Germany: about 8 days he says.

Any thing from 6 days to 6 weeks in my experience.

you should have it send by EMS post then you will receive a tracking number and then know where it is along the way.

I have a tracking number and my parcel has stopped dead in Bkk since Sunday November 18. No movement whatsoever.
