Importing to Thailand

[opala41]

Hi,

 

I just visited Bangkok (and Thailand) for the very first time two weeks ago. I loved Thailand! I went for a business meeting that was successful and on Oct 5th I'll be back in town, now with my wife for a second meeting and 4 days of leisure. 

 

I'd like to ask you about the import fees in Thailand. I've bought an iPhone 7 in USA and shipped it to my freight forwarder. They can ship them to Brazil, where I live, but they can ship the package to Thailand too. I can choose Thai mail or the courier companies like Fedex and UPS. I searched a lot about Thai taxes and fees and I already wrote to Fedex but still no response regarding taxes.

 

Since I will be in Bangkok, I thought about shipping the package to my hotel thru Fedex. How much do you think I'll have to pay to Fedex for import/VAT/brokerage? The package's total value is US$ 1400.00 (one iPhone, one Apple Watch).

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Julio
