Most, if not all male foreigners are in Section 2. In Thai they say "Dan 2". All female prisoners are in "Dan 4".
You should also write their cell number but it isn't important if you don't have it yet. However, it
might help to start with, if you can add the nationality next to the
name. You can use the following address:
Prisoner's Name (Dan 2)
Samut Prakan Central Prison
333 Sukhumwit Road
Tambon Klong Dan
Amphoe Bang Bo
Samut Prakan Province
10550
Thailand
11th July 2008: It
has just been announced that for the foreseeable future, you CANNOT
send any parcels to prisons inside Thailand. You can only send letters.
You
mustn't send any metal objects which also includes silver foil. For
example, the seal on the tube of toothpaste will not pass. If the metal
detector alarm goes off, they will just return it to sender without
opening it. If you send parcels, you are supposed to put a photocopy of your i.d. card or passport on the side of the box. However, you don't need to do this if you put a book in a normal envelope.
