The Cheapest & The Fastest Ways to Ship Parcels from Thailand to the World

Cheap, fast shipping from Hua Hin to the US, UK, Australia, or the World - see how to save with local courier options.

Do you need to send a box, a gift, or a product from Hua Hin to someone in the United States, United Kingdom, or Australia?


Maybe it’s a birthday surprise for your sister in Sydney. Or an online sale going to New York. Or some Thai snacks for a friend in London. Whatever the reason, you probably want to ship it fast, safe – and cheap.


But shipping overseas from Thailand can feel confusing and expensive, especially from Hua Hin, a city without international airport connections.


This guide will break it down and help you find the cheapest and best ways to ship parcels from Hua Hin.


What Are My International Shipping Options in Hua Hin?

When sending parcels abroad, you usually have three choices:


1. Thailand Post

This is the local post office service. They offer:

  • Economy (cheapest, but slowest)

  • Air mail (faster but more expensive)

  • EMS World (Express Mail Service, faster than air mail)


Pros:

  • Cheap for small and lightweight items

  • Post offices are everywhere

Cons:

  • Long delivery times (especially economy service)

  • No real-time tracking

  • Limited help if a parcel gets stuck or lost


2. Courier Companies (like DHL)

These are global companies that specialize in fast, reliable shipping.


Pros:

  • Fast delivery (3-7 business days)

  • Full tracking

  • Easier to deal with customs

  • Great for businesses or important packages

Cons:

  • Can be very expensive if you walk into their main offices as a regular customer


BUT… (hold on, we’ll tell you a secret to get these same services for less)


3. Parcel Agents or Resellers in Hua Hin

Some local shops (like Thai Nexus) act as official partners for big courier companies.


Pros:

  • They offer discounted rates – way cheaper than going directly to DHL or Aramex

  • Help with packing, paperwork, customs

  • Speak English and Thai

  • Local support if anything goes wrong

Cons:

  • Not every agent is trustworthy. You have to pick the right one.


How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Parcel from Thailand to the US, UK, or Australia?

Let’s break it down based on weight, using average costs (as of mid-2025):

WeightThailand Post (EMS)Courier via Thai Nexus (Discounted)
1 kg1,400-2,000 THB1,600–2,100 THB (3–5 days delivery)
3 kg2,100–3,400 THB2,100–3,700 THB
5 kg2,800–4,700 THB2,600–5,200 THB
10 kg4,600–7,900 THB4,200–6,300 THB

Surprise! Courier prices from a good local agent can be just a little more than slow post office shipping – but MUCH faster and safer.


What If You’re Shipping Products or Gifts Regularly?

If you run a small business or send parcels often:

  • Thailand Post might feel slow and risky

  • Going direct to DHL will crush your profit

  • Partnering with a local shipping center gives you speed, safety, and price


With companies like Aramex, you can ship to Australia or the UK at really competitive rates – especially for 5kg+ parcels.


Extra Tips to Save Money on Shipping

  1. Pack small and tight – Price often depends on volume as well as weight
  2. Use your own box – Avoid oversized packaging
  3. Print your labels at the shop – Agents can give you digital tracking labels with a scan
  4. Ask about customs – The shop can help you fill out the form so it won’t get stuck at the border


What’s the Best Way to Ship from Hua Hin Without Overpaying?

If you want:

  • Fast delivery (3–7 days)

  • Real tracking

  • Customs help

  • And prices that won’t break your wallet

Then the best move is to use a local DHL or Aramex agent – but not just any agent.
