Postal Courier service to UK

Post by PET »

Can anyone advise me on this availability in Hua Hin

I need to send an envelope to the UK urgently using a courier service.

DHL have delivered to me once but I do not think they have an office in Hua Hin.

I think the Post Office have something but I do not know how reliable they are.

I used the EMS international service at the Post Office a couple of times last year and it was very reliable. If my memory serves me right, both deliveries took 5 days.
You'll get a "job number/code" and you can track the progress on the internet. The PO will explain it all to you.
I can remember that the tracking system showed the documents out of HH and into BKK airport in double quick time and then they just sat there for a few days. I was on a deadline and getting a bit worried. Then it was "whoosh", gone to the UK and delivered to recipient.

I agree. The EMS service has always been a pleasure, and even after using it scores of times, I've never been let down.....10/10

Kendo, this seems to be a different PO from the Main PO opposite the Police Station on Damnernkasem Rd- can you give directions and the Soi number , please

I think it must be the main PO. By same side of the soi, I suspect Kendo means in the soi with the Police Station, same side of Petchkasem Road.

The post shop inside Gun Toong ( green supermarket) can be used for this service - including tracking number printed on receipt.
