Regular mail between the U.S. and Thailand can take anywhere from 7 to 10 days (or more!) to arrive. Family and friends should send mail to:
Student Name
ISDSI
PO Box 222
Phra Singh, Muang
Chiang Mai, 50205
THAILAND
Packages that are sent through airmail often take longer than letters to arrive. Express mail (e.g. DHL) is faster. Be advised, however, that the package will probably be opened, and its contents examined by customs. Do not ship medications from the United States. All packages should have written "Gifts—of no commercial value/personal use" on the outside to identify that they are not for resale. Lists of items in packages should be general to help avoid the contents getting pilfered. Packages may still be taxed, at up to 100% of their assessed value. There is nothing ISDSI can do if your package is taxed.
When you need to receive or send something in a hurry, you can use Express mail (we recommend DHL). The physical shipping address for packages is:
Student Name
ISDSI
48/1 Chiang Mai—Lampang Rd (Superhighway)
Muang, Chiang Mai, 50300
THAILAND
