Basically, you will not be allowed to take it with you when you depart the country. It is against the law, unless you follow certain procedures, which can take weeks to get final approval. It really is not worth it, any Asian shop in your own country will have the Buddha figurines, hassle free. Besides you are not sure you are really getting original Thai items. Surprisingly, some of the Buddha figurines are made in China, or some other Asian country. Plus the fact that they will surely be overpriced. There are so many different other souvenirs you can buy which will act as a memorabilia of your visit. Play it smart.
