I have actually 3 things that I intend to leave in Thailand. One worth $250, one $50 and one $30. So roughly 11k BHT. I don't want to declare it as I don't want to waste time at customs.
I will report if I had any hustle.
Right now waiting in the UA lounge waiting for my flight to BKK.
I guess that I will clear immigration at BKK but customs at HKT.

Yes, if you are flying through BKK, and can use the mid-field connection, then you would clear Customs in HKT.

Did it on Friday.Declared I had 6 with intent to consumer two in country and souvenirs that would come to NY. I was sent on my way immediately with no duty owed.
if you are arriving in the UK from outside the EU you are permitted to bring in 4 litres of wine, and up to two litres of spirits and or fortified or sparkling wine.
you must declare if you are over this limit... it doesn't matter if you intend to take them out again or not. 6 bottles means you need to declare them all. you may be asked to pay duty in the excess.
