How Long Do They Hold Mail?

[themechanic]

I'm expecting a package but the sender didn't give me the tracking number until today. I've managed to track it and the last update on the Thailand Post website is on January 7, 2015 with the message "Item held,addressee notified due to Addressee cannot be located"

How long do they hold it before returning it to the sender? I don't want to drive out there for nothing.

Suggest you drive there. Then they'll know who you are the next time mail gets held. You might also get the "correct" address wording so you won't have that problem again.

Go to your main postoffice with the tracking number and you will probably find it there and may need to pay duty. I have had this happen to me the same way 2 times.

Go to the post office mentioned on the tracking site.

I went there and successfully collected it. No customs duty was payable. The package contained books.
