Overview

Why Thailand asks for a legalised packing list

The packing list describes how a shipment is packed: number of packages, marks and numbers, dimensions and weights. Customs officers use it to inspect cargo, and chambers use it to support the certificate of origin. The exporter prepares the packing list on letterhead, showing packages, marks, net and gross weights for each item.

Importers across Asia increasingly verify origin and value documents before clearance, and some still ask for paper documents with embassy stamps.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Thailand usually ask for a legalised packing list for physical inspection at customs, supporting the certificate of origin or insurance and cargo claims.

A packing list issued in India is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, then by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and finally legalised by the Embassy of Thailand in New Delhi.

In our processing experience, Indian documents for Thailand are legalised through the Royal Thai Embassy rather than by apostille.
