What Is Air Express Shipping?

How Air Express Works for Small Parcels & Boxes

Air express shipping connects senders with global courier networks. Parcels are picked up from your location, processed through export customs, flown to destination hubs, and delivered directly to the recipient - typically within days.

Key Features of Air Express vs. Air Freight

While air freight is ideal for large cargo, air express provides priority handling, door-to-door delivery, and real-time tracking. It's the preferred method for smaller, high-value, or time-sensitive shipments that require faster customs clearance.

Best Use Cases for Air Express


  • Urgent business documents: Export contracts, corporate paperwork, or legal filings.

  • Small parcels & boxes: Product samples or personal items needing quick delivery.

  • Courier Services: Quick international deliveries available.

  • Cross-Border Ecommerce Orders: Essential for online sellers shipping to neighboring markets, North America, Europe, Middle East or Asia.

Air Express Costs from/to Thailand


How Weight and Size Affect Pricing


Air express pricing is based on volumetric (dimensional) weight. Using compact, lightweight packaging reduces costs and accelerates customs clearance.


Seasonal Price Changes


Rates may rise during Songkran Festival, Lunar New Year, and global retail peaks (Black Friday, Christmas) due to high cargo volume. Advance booking secures space and preferred rates.


Customs Duties and Taxes for Thailand


Imports and exports are regulated by the Thai Customs Department (Ministry of Finance).


  • Import Duties: typically 0-30%, depending on product classification.
  • Value-Added Tax (VAT): 7%, applied to most imports and domestic goods.
  • De Minimis Threshold: goods valued under 1,500 THB may qualify for simplified clearance.
  • Free Trade Agreements (FTA): Thailand's FTAs with ASEAN, China, Japan, and Australia reduce duties for eligible shipments.

iContainers ensures paperless customs processing via the e-Customs platform and real-time clearance tracking.


Packaging & Documentation for Air Express Shipments


Best Packaging Practices for Small Boxes & Parcels


Use moisture-resistant, secure packaging suitable for tropical conditions. Clearly label all shipments in English and Thai, with invoices attached externally for customs inspection.


Required Documents for Air Express from/to Thailand


  • Air Waybill (AWB)
  • Commercial Invoice
  • Packing List
  • Customs Declaration Form (Import/Export Entry)
