Starting with one case of detained furniture: A turning point in my ten-year career in Thailand express logistics in Huizhou
"That afternoon, Mr. Lao Zhang on the other end of the phone was shaking with fear: 'All my cabinets of redwood furniture were detained at Linchaban Port for three days. They said the declared item name didn't match...' ’”
This scene took place in 2016. Today, we have provided "zero deposit, all-inclusive price, door-to-door" logistics services to over 3,000 enterprises in Huizhou and its surrounding areas. I'm Ajie, a project manager who has been deeply involved in cross-border logistics for 12 years. This article aims to tell you with real experiences: Why "logistics from Huizhou to Thailand" shouldn't be your source of anxiety anymore?

Q2: Will there be any hidden charges in the price? How can it be considered a good deal?
A: We adhere to the policy of "all-inclusive fixed price", refuse any hidden fees, and provide a transparent comparison table.

- Long-term customers can enjoy monthly settlement period, reducing financial pressure.
Q3: What exactly is the "double clearance and tax exemption" you mentioned? Can it really solve the problem of seized goods?
A: With a 10-year local team, we have perfected "accurate declaration + double clearance and tax exemption".
- What is "accurate declaration"?
- It's not just writing "gift" or "sample" randomly. Instead, it involves matching the latest classification rules of the Thai customs based on HS codes, materials, and purposes. For example: LED lights ≠ ordinary lamps; the driving voltage and whether they have batteries need to be specified.
- What is "double clearance and tax exemption (DDP)"?
- From picking up goods at the Huizhou factory → Chinese export customs declaration → sea/land transportation → Thai customs clearance and tax payment → delivery to the door. All of this is handled by us. You only need to provide the goods and the invoice.
- Complex case handling capabilities:
- Anti-dumping products (such as stainless steel tableware) → Provide original origin certificate + compliant declaration path;
- High-value equipment (such as CNC machines) → Coordinate the Thai BOI tax exemption channel;
- Category confusion (such as "massage chairs" being wrongly reported as "furniture") → We have a pre-review mechanism. The code will be confirmed before shipment.
Attachment: List of necessary materials before shipment (simplified version)
1. Goods list (name, quantity, unit price, material)
2. Commercial invoice (in Chinese and English)
3. Packaging photos (especially with electricity, magnetism, liquids)
4. Special certifications (such as CE, RoHS, if any)
Q4: Do you have customized solutions for different industries?
A: Absolutely! We design solutions based on the specific pain points of each industry ——
| Industry | Customized Services |
| Electronic products | Anti-static packaging + temperature-controlled vehicle transportation + "green channel" at Thai customs (priority inspection, shortened port stay time) |
| Mechanical equipment | Wooden box/floor frame reinforcement + lifting service + special transportation vehicle arrangement + providing Thai installation and connection guidance |
| Furniture/Lighting | Pearl foam + corner protection + base frame three-layer protection, anti-scuffing and anti-pressure, damage rate < 0.5% |
| Dangerous Goods | Team holding IMDG certification, capable of handling lithium batteries (UN3480/3481), cosmetic liquids, chemicals, etc., handling dangerous goods packaging certificates |
Case: In 2025, a certain intelligent lighting factory in Zhongkai, Huizhou sent 2,000 sets of LED track lights to a Bangkok shopping mall. We adopted "anti-vibration corner protection + dedicated land transportation + prior filing with Thai customs", and the goods were delivered in 7 days with zero damage and no delay in inspection.

Success case sharing
Customer: A furniture exporter in Huizhou
Challenges: In the past, they sent goods through their counterparts. Due to failing to specify the type of redwood when declaring "wooden table", their shipment was detained by the Thai customs for 15 days and they were fined over 20,000 yuan.
Solution:
- Review the materials in advance and accurately declare as "Rosewood dining table, HS 9403.60";
- Choose "Sea freight + double clearance with tax included";
- The Thai team tracks in real time and completes customs clearance within 48 hours after arrival at the port.
Result: The entire container was safely delivered to the warehouse in Bangkok, and the customer renewed the annual contract.
