Full Details

Posting cosmetics to Thailand in personal quantities is permitted — registration and notification regimes govern marketing cosmetics, not personal parcels. Thai Customs Department applies the ordinary parcel framework to an accurate CN22/CN23 declaration: import VAT/GST at 7% applies above the exemption threshold, plus duty on above-threshold consignments. De minimis threshold was lowered from THB 1,500 to THB 1 (effectively eliminating it for e-commerce) by Revenue Department announcement — VAT collection now applies to all imported e-commerce goods. For customs duty de minimis, THB 1,500 still applies. Verify current rules with Thai Customs. Aerosols and nail varnish are dangerous-goods limited quantities for air mail; bulk or repeated identical parcels are treated as unregistered commercial imports.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Keep parcels to personal quantities and declare contents specifically ('face cream', not 'gift'). Check carrier rules for aerosols and nail varnish — they are the commonly refused items in this class.
