Export Restrictions

Be aware that it is forbidden to take images of Buddha, deities, and some antique artifacts from the country without first obtaining approval from the Fine Arts Department in Bangkok.

If your antique artifact or Buddha image is sold with a certificate of authenticity, you will need to apply for permission to export. Your average artifact however is more than likely to be a replica - the like of which you see available in street stalls and shops all over the country, and which you can take out of the country.
