Some delivery companies allow maximum of two Lithium-ion batteries per parcel, providing the special packaging requirements detailed overleaf are met and carrier documentation be completed and included with your consignment note.

Gary A Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Last week I took four airline flights. At each checkin, I was asked if I had any batteries in my checked bag. A couple weeks ago I ordered a battery operated lawn tool. After I ordered it, the seller emailed me and told me the airline wouldn't take the package. He asked if I wanted to cancel because shipping had to go overland and the estimated delivery time would be forty days. I didn't cancel the order. They are taking the danger very seriously.

Thai post will not send a phone to anywhere unless you remove the battery, recently sent a phone to Malaysia that someone had left behind and no problem without battery, no go with battery. Just send it and buy a new battery in UK problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topt Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Well a friends Thai aunt has just sent a phone including the battery (old style small non smart phone) signed and tracked from the UK to Thailand - took 3 weeks to get to Pattaya. I don't think it was declared as being a phone however because I was surprised it turned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry you were writing your reply at the same time I was writing this apologies. Edited May 4, 2017 by phuketjock correction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
