Thailand seizes 100 million baht in fake ‘Made in Thailand’ products at Laem Chabang Port

This report covers thailand seizes 100 million with key details and context.

Thai Customs and the Department of Foreign Trade yesterday announced the seizure of more than 100 million baht worth of goods falsely labelled as ‘Made in Thailand’ at Laem Chabang Port in Chon Buri. Officials said the operation targeted imported products from China that were fraudulently marked as Thai-made, undermining the credibility of Thai exports and the international trading system.

Inspections focused on businesses operating in Free Zones and IEAT Free Zones. Two major cases were identified: the first involved 5.37 million TWOMOON cigarettes imported from China but labelled ‘Made in Thailand,’ with an estimated economic impact of about 17 million baht. The second case involved over 202,000 sets of semi-finished cutter blades and related production equipment, considered finished products ready for sale, with an estimated impact of more than 82.7 million baht.

Both cases are suspected of violating the Customs Act B.E. 2560 (2017). The department warned that falsely declaring a product’s country of origin distorts international trade and could be used to circumvent trade measures imposed by Thailand’s trading partners. Officials said they will strengthen inspections, increase penalties, and suspend trade privileges for offenders.

Customs also released enforcement figures for Laem Chabang Port covering October 2025 to July 10 this year. During the 10-month period, 177 major cases were handled involving false origin claims, hazardous waste, counterfeit goods, and cannabis smuggling, with estimated economic losses exceeding 1.3778 billion baht.
