Sheryl Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Coming by DHL you will surely be asked to produce an FDA license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puccini Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Does Thailand's customs tariff code in fact have an item called "supplements"? I always thought that what we call supplements are categorised as either medicine or food, depending on the FDA classification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a "pharmaceutical" category (requiring import license) and various food categories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticFox Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Buy from iHerb<dot>com. Keep you total purchase under $46 and there are no duties. Yeah, you'll have to make multiple orders but you'll save money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldriglikvid Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 To help others, here's my receipt: If it would only be the Customs Duty it would've been "worth it" but with all the fee's added up, I'm somewhat reluctant to do this again. It's not a huge hit to the wallet since supplements are so over-the-top expensive in Thailand and so affordable in Europe (lots of milking cows? ???? ) And yes, I concur on the iHerb idea above. I had 3-4 shipments from iHerb and another American store I can't remember now entering completely without Taxes/Vat. Actually, it was that experience that made me a bit cocky I could work this through. Anyways, please be informed and don't flame. Bless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would I trip the customs monster? I have searched Lazada and Shopee in vain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you try to order more than isl ikley to go through it triggers an error message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have ordered before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
