Q: How do I handle customs regulations when arriving in Pattaya?
- Be aware of the duty-free allowance for goods you can bring into Thailand, which typically includes 200 cigarettes, 1 liter of alcohol, and gifts valued up to 20,000 THB.
- Declare any items that exceed these limits or that are prohibited, such as certain medications or wildlife products.
- Keep receipts for any high-value items you are bringing into the country.
- Be prepared for random checks by customs officials.
