Price list of 3 August 2026, duty and tax included. The price is weight and dimension, quoted for the country: a box is billed on whichever is greater, its actual weight or the space it takes up. There is no minimum weight and no maximum. Over 30 kg, call the office.
What the price includes
One rate covers customs clearance, transportation, delivery and documentation. That is DDP, delivered duty paid: how it works is on the DDP shipping page. No hidden fees, no surcharges. Nothing extra for an urgent shipment, nothing extra for a remote address.
There is no discount for anybody. One price for all customers, whether you send one box or send every week. The rate you are quoted for your first shipment is the same rate a weekly shipper pays.
Insurance is required on every shipment and covers loss. You choose the declared value when you book. How claims and delays are handled is set out in the refund and cancellation policy.
How the parcel moves
Dragon Courier handles the export, the documents and the customs clearance. The last leg to the door in the UK travels on the networks of the major carriers, a mixture of UPS, FedEx and DHL.
Everything goes by air. Customs clearance is the main selling point of Dragon Courier: the company takes care of everything door to door. Door to door tracking is provided on export day, and you can share the same tracking with the person receiving it. When the delivery is done you receive a file showing proof of delivery.
Dragon Courier intentionally doesn't get signatures on delivery, because a signature is often what delays the delivery. If the recipient is out and the package can't be left somewhere safe, the driver may take it back to the hub for a next day attempt, or leave it at a nearby pick up point.
What we need from you
The contents of the package and the receiver's name, address and contact number. That is the whole list. No other information, and no account is required to start sending.
Drop-off is until 17:00, Monday to Saturday, at the Bangkok office in Sukhumvit Soi 4 or the Chiang Mai office on Viangbua Road. If a pickup is easier, give the team the date and the time you want.
Payment is cash or bank transfer, before export. Any invoice you require can be provided.
Live plants to the UK
Dragon Courier is the number one exporter of live plants in Thailand. The phytosanitary certificate from the Thai Department of Agriculture is arranged for you, along with the import documentation and any CITES paperwork the species needs.
Plants ship bare-root with new sphagnum moss, with door to door temperature control, on the fastest flight, all year round including winter. Full details, and the species rules, on the plant export service page.
Will my customer in the UK have to pay import VAT or duty?
No. All duties, costs and tariffs are inside the fee. Dragon Courier clears customs and your customer pays nothing on arrival.
How long does it take?
Around 5 to 8 days door to door, from Bangkok to a UK address.
Is there a minimum or maximum quantity?
No. You can ship as much as you like at any time, from one box to weekly volume. Over 30 kg per box, call the office first.
