Abstract
The study focused on the export of sugar, and of parts for electronic devices, because these products are two of Thailand’s highest-performing exports. Trade documents should be examined and revised to reduce redundancy. Steps should be taken to investigate how to reduce costs for preparing, sending and receiving documents as well as the arrangement of inland transport. The study examined the processes involved in the import of raw materials (for electronic devices) in order to give due attention to both sides of trade transaction, and to illustrate the complex procedural requirements and interactions between the agencies that sustain global supply chains
