How to ship from Thailand to Singapore in 4 steps
Getting your details ready before you book keeps the price you see accurate and reduces the chance of your parcel being held for a document check along the way.
- Check your item
Make sure your item is not on the carrier's or Singapore's prohibited or controlled goods list.
- Pack and measure the box
Weigh the parcel after packing and measure width x length x height, because carriers may charge by volumetric weight.
- Compare rates
Enter your details in ParcelRadar, then pick a service based on the price, transit time and conditions that suit your parcel.
- Let us handle the paperwork
Send your item details to the ParcelRadar team and we will help prepare your invoice, packing list and coordinate any required permits before you ship.

* DDU does not always mean you'll pay tax. Duty-free, non-controlled goods shipped by air or post with a CIF value of no more than 400 SGD, or roughly 10,312 baht, are exempt from import duty and GST at the border. Dutiable goods, controlled goods, land/sea shipments and purchases from OVR sellers follow different rules. See the conditions from Singapore Customs.
YunExpress Singapore's DDP option builds an estimated import tax, based on the declared value, into the price.
But a service that isn't DDP or ALL-IN may also owe no tax, if the item is duty-free and not controlled,
shipped by air or post, with a CIF value of no more than 400 SGD, or roughly 10,312 baht.
Key conditions to compare before choosing a service
- The transit times shown are estimates and may increase due to customs inspection, holidays or the destination area.
- Prices are based on actual weight versus volumetric weight, using the higher of the two, plus each service's minimum weight.
- Each service supports different goods, such as processed food, batteries, liquids or controlled items.
- Insurance may not cover under-declared value, fragile or perishable goods, and unsuitable packaging.
- Many services offer 24-hour tracking, insurance, doorstep delivery and live map tracking, so compare the features before choosing.
What you should know about shipping parcels to Singapore
You don't need to worry about the tax and paperwork.
ParcelRadar helps check whether your item qualifies for the exemption on values up to 400 SGD, or whether you should choose DDP, and prepares the documents before you ship.
Don't want to worry about tax? Choose DDP
Even if you choose a standard service that isn't DDP or ALL-IN, duty-free and non-controlled goods
shipped by air or post with a CIF value of no more than 400 SGD, or roughly 10,312 baht,
are exempt from import duty and GST at the border. DDP suits you when you want to see the estimated tax in advance.
Our team will help check the item type, the shipping route and the conditions that apply to your parcel.
Food can be shipped, but choose the right service
Many services in our system support processed food, but Singapore controls certain foods and may limit the quantity.
You should tell the team the item name, ingredients, weight and a photo of the packaging so we can check before shipping.
ParcelRadar will help check the requirements and the related documents.
Illegal goods, counterfeits, hazardous materials and e-cigarettes remain prohibited.
