Tariff & Shipping Instructions

All below rates are in US Dollars and subject to VAT of 7%.

Inward to Thailand by International Courier: 

Importation of brochures, folders, advertising flyers, printed matter, and small ‘give-away'  promotional items (pens, key chains, calendars, etc.) can be more easily and economically  arranged if the exhibitors use major international courier companies to send their items to  Thailand.  This is only for ‘consumable – permanent entry’ items which will NOT be returned to the origin country.   

Important: For stand/booth materials, signage, or other items that exhibitors wish to have  returned to their home countries or another destination, exhibitors must go through normal  import cargo customs clearance channels and cannot use courier companies. Please  contact us for further details if you have such cargo. 

1. If permanent entry shipments through DHL, FedEx, TNT, or UPS up to Bangkok,   please specify “DDP” service, which means “Delivery Duty Paid”.  The courier will  prepay the import duties in Thailand and collect from the exhibitor at origin.   However, some courier companies do not have DDP service, if you decided to use such courier company please note that we will have a 10% service charge for advancing duty payment.

Please arrange your shipment to arrive at Elite before January 4th, 2010
