Process
The Steps of Your Customs Clearance in Thailand
We carefully review and submit all required paperwork for your international shipment, including invoices, packing lists, airway bills or bills of lading, and certificates of origin. For goods requiring specific licenses — such as alcohol, food products, or hazardous materials — we secure all necessary authorizations in advance to ensure full compliance with customs regulations.
Accurate classification under the Harmonized System (HS codes) is essential to determine the correct duties and taxes. Our specialists identify the proper HS codes for your belongings, ensuring precise documentation and smooth processing with customs authorities.
Customs duties and VAT are calculated based on your shipment’s declared value and transport costs. Thanks to our global trade knowledge and experience with tariff relief programs, we help you optimize costs and take advantage of any applicable exemptions.
Certain shipments may be selected for inspection to verify compliance with labeling, safety, or import standards. We coordinate directly with customs officers to ensure the process runs efficiently and with minimal delays.
All required payments must be settled before customs can release your goods. DocShipper Moving manages this step for you, ensuring accuracy, transparency, and proper documentation for every transaction.
Once verification and payments are complete, your shipment is officially cleared. We immediately organize final transport to your residence, warehouse, or chosen destination anywhere in the world.

We can't make this up, read why businesses are trusting us with their shipments every day.
I contacted DocShipper to organize the import of board games from Asia to Switzerland. Despite my lack of experience in the field and the modest size of my request, my dealings with the staff were always professional and efficient. I received sound advice and the staff always took the time to answer my questions. I look forward to working with DocShipper for the import of my goods and highly recommend their services.

My name is Ad Van Den Bosh. I am a Dutch business man cross-trading in the Far East. I reached Robert Houwayek (DocShipper's representative) to clear a 40HC of greenhouse equipment from Qingdao, and deliver it to Lan Krabue in no time. He suggested that I request a Form E, which I did from the supplier, and was able to enjoy a preferential tariff treatment. DocShipper, a way to help you save both time and money!!

I recently used Docshipper to ship my appliances from Germany to Thailand, and I'm thrilled with the service I received! [...]The team was professional, responsive, and kept me informed every step of the way. The packaging and handling of my appliances were top-notch, and they arrived in perfect condition. I was impressed with the attention to detail and care taken to ensure a safe and successful transport. I really recommend Docshipper for it.

In the event of goods being stuck at customs, Robert [...] is a customs broker you should arguably consider to release your cargo. Once I knew that my scale modeling tools coming from Spain are being withheld at Suvarnabhumi Airport, I resorted to him to release it and handle the last mile delivery. All what he asked me is to send 2 emails to be able to do it! [...] Well guess what, within 48 hours, it was done! I got my parcel at my place in Phuket.

A vice president caught up in the thick of thin things, an EXW shipment of plumbing supplies for irrigation from Eureka California to Costa Rica is definitely not what I’d like to have on my agenda. Robert’s hang-in-there posture toward any arising challenges in shipping. [...] skillfully handled all US export formalities incl. SED/AES filing, not to mention the sea freight from Oakland POL. Everything ended up working out like a charm!

I feel they covered everything. DocShipper shipped a 20- ft Milvan overseas to Laem Chabang for a customer. The team was responsible for shipping the shipping to another country. Having very little knowledge in this area, I didn't know how to organise myself . One week after my arrival on the Asian continent. Marc O. Was available at all times and nearly instant feedback. Made a stressful event much easier and he definitely knows his job.
