Where can I find the postal rates to sent EMS package or normal postal package from SHV to Thailand?
- Is there a price per grams or kg?
- Can I pick up the empty postal boxes in the post office in SHV?
Thanks for the help guys.
(perhaps does the SHV post office have a website with the tariffs on?)
No website (lol), but they have tariff sheets with all the prices if you go and ask them.

Every 4 or 5 months I have a package shipped EMS from the Pacific Northwest of America. Its the biggest package that is allowed. It cost me around $150 to $180.us and takes anywhere from 6 to 12 days.( customs invoice says Personal Affects.) Forget FedEx or DHL. EMS is the only way to go. On line tracking number with EMS is the best.

Given that steevee's post was from over 2 years ago, it's quite possible that the link you posted didn't exist at the time.

Good that you updated the thread with current info. :thumb:
