Welcome to the United Nations
This regulatory sandbox is designed to lower the regulatory cost of players who develop and test innovations before obtaining the finished commercial product and in preparation for the adoption of 5G technologies in Thailand. The sandbox license has a term of 360 days and is extendable to up to 720 days. The Eastern Economic Corridor (EECO), a special economic zone of three provinces in eastern Thailand, partnered with state-owned National Telecommunications (NT), launched the country’s first 5G pilot. Under the plan, the district of Ban Chang, Rayong, became Thailand’s first progressive smart city and constructed various infrastructure for 5G. As a result, local residents are able to receive 100x faster internet than traditional 4G networks. Government and private sectors can connect and share instant information.
