Unlike other prisoners you are not allowed to bring food or other items for prisoners. The only thing you can do is to buy things in the Prison Shop or send something to the through the post office. As you leave the waiting area, turn right and head towards the parking area and visitor canteen. You will see the prison shop on your right.  There is a form here with the prices. All you have to do is fill in the quantity for each item. Unfortunately, it is only available in Thai. Luckily, we have done a translation for you. Sometimes, one of the people on duty might be able to help. Plus, most of the items are on show behind the counter. You don't actually get to touch them like in a normal shop. But you can point. Take the form to the cashier and put the form face down in the blue tray on the counter. The name of the prisoner will be called in turn and you will be asked for the money. He will then staple the receipt to your form. You do not get any receipt. Don't worry, the food always gets there. You can also buy shirts and shorts. Sometimes you might find some items not available. Also, prices for items such as fruit might vary with the season.

NEW: You can now download our free Visitor's Guide in PDF format. This includes a bilingual list of the items on sale in the shop.
