P.O. box rental in Thailand

How to get a postal address in Thailand

When renting an apartment in Thailand, you also get a postal address that can be used for correspondence (letters) and parcels.

A mailbox is included with the rented apartment free of charge.

Usually mailboxes are located inside the building next to the Juristic Person of the condominium. On the first floor next to the lobby or in another place that is publicly accessible to all residents, but usually inaccessible to third-party passers-by.

Perhaps for some reason you are not satisfied with the mailbox in the condominium. For example, you rent an apartment without mailboxes, or you live in a hotel. Perhaps your condominium does not have mailboxes or you are worried about the security of letters. Perhaps you want to receive letters and parcels without informing the rest of the tenants of your apartment.

In some of these situations (for example, the absence of mailboxes in the apartment), the postman will leave the letters addressed to you in the lobby.

In any case, you may want to consider renting a mailbox.
