Thailand meds by boat?

Hello everyone.

Has anyone had experience with Thailand Post by boat since the pandemic started? Just wondering on average, how long it takes?

I've been taking NDT for years now and never really had any problems for the most part getting a supply on time but I've recently ordered some expecting to receive them in the usual 7 to 15 day ish time period.

Then yesterday I had a reminder email telling me my meds would be coming by boat so be prepared for a longer delivery time, I just didn't account for this and will definitely run out if its the Google stated time of 40 to 60 days 😩

I'm imagining I'm going to have to contact my doctor with humble pie in my hand and ask to be put back on levo 😭

Hoping someone might tell me its not actually that much longer than by air?

Thanks, Jamie

Yes mine took 9 days when I ordered it before. Hopefully you might be able get some sooner once the air freight re-commences.
