The point to fix before starting is the real deadline, so the steps can be scheduled backwards from it. The most frequent cause of delay in this group is missing supporting documents on the first submission.

Import and export clearance is filed with the Customs Department through the electronic import or export declaration, supported by documents such as the bill of lading or air waybill, commercial invoice, packing list and any licence required by the agency that controls the goods. Foreign-language supporting documents may have to be filed with a Thai translation. Only the importer, exporter or a licensed customs broker files the declaration — a translation provider is not a customs broker and does not file on your behalf.
