I am with my wife we live in Phichit Province. They have a new immigration office.

you open the account in Thailand but once you come back to the United States, you can send money to your account in Thailand through the New York branch of Bangkok Bank. It is not a retail branch where they have walk-up service and things like that. It’s a commercial bank, but all you have to do is call them and get their routing number, you send them the money and they will forward it to your account and Thailand. When I called the New York branch to get the routing number and the instructions for sending money to my account in Thailand they were very helpful so make sure you do that.

Dry ice packaging must include the words on the outside of the package dry ice or carbon dioxide solid. They must also have proper ventilation.

from what I read the OP never mentioned anything about fruit. Concentrate only you did. He’s importing coffee in his friend suitcase. 

@Ron *******

I normally send money to my account with Bangkok Bank to the New York branch of Bangkok Bank. That way your transfer is less than the international fee is. Of course that is, if you are from the US.

and horrible exchange rate.

@Pascal *******

so then tell me what it is called if I am on a non-0 Visa based on marriage and it expires in December and I have to extend it for another year?

@Greg *****

I believe you’re correct but what I have found out is that most AT&T unlimited plans include unlimited international texting. 

@Alastair *******

from the US it does not get stamped in. Just print a copy folded up and keep it in your passport.
