A new 4G roaming deal between CAT/True Move, will see True pay a rental fee of THB 4.1 bn in cash to CAT within 8 years for the use of CAT’s 850MHz spectrum, and a barter deal (valued at THB 5.2 bn) giving CAT access to some of True’s 4G network on 1800/2100MHz within 10 years.
According to True’s conditions, the 4G roaming agreement is exclusively for CAT, i.e. none the MVNOs will be able to use it.

TOT Pcl is the 3rd largest shareholder in DTAC with 5.25% shares
TOT selected DTAC, as its partner to deploy 4G LTE services using the 64MHz TOT was given by NBTC on the 2300MHz band. The proposal is a copy of the TRUE/CAT 850MHz setup, and involves DTAC’s wholly owned subsidiary TriNet purchasing 60% of TOT’s capacity for a fixed annual payment of THB 4.5 billion.
TOT/DTAC aims to sign a final agreement in Q4 2017, after securing approvals from the relevant government agencies.

In September 2016, TOT and AWN, a subsidiary of AIS, signed a 6 month trial contract where AWN would roam on TOT’s 2100MHz network.
If a permanent deal is agreed and approved by relevant agencies, AWN will add 11,000 base stations to TOT’s existing 5,320 bringing the total to 16.320. AWN will then purchase 80% on a wholesale / resale basis, of the total bandwidth capacity to serve its own subscribers, and pay TOT an annual fee of THB 3.9 billion.
In June 2017 AWN was switched with Super Broadband Network (SBN) another subsidiary of AIS.
TOT will use parts of the remaining 20% capacity for its TOT 3G, and wholesale the rest to MVNOs.

Example: The MVNA resells the now THB 100 worth of voice calling to the MVNO.THB 1,05 + 3,00% fee = THB 108,40

Example: The MVNO sells the now THB 100
worth of voice calling to customers.THB 1,08 + 3,00% fee = THB 111,65
In 2017 the NBTC introduced a Mobile Virtual Network Agrregator (MNVA) license along with fees of 1.5% of revenue + 1.5% to Universial Service Obligation (USO) fund.However, the setup of the MVNA license fees will cause the burden to be pushed to the MVNOs and endusers, as the NBTC is charging triple fees on one ”signal”.

2 x 45MHz is held by CAT under the concession that will expire in 2018. NBTC will auction the remaining spectrum after the concession expiry date.
Low Low 2018-2020
1880-1920MHzThis band is currently allocated for fixed services.
The 1880-1920MHz has been identified for IMT globally for TDD. However, there is limited interest to implement IMT in these bands and NBTC does not expect to make any changes in the near future.

Medium Low 2018-2020
2300-2400MHzThis band is currently assigned to TOT and other government users.
NBTC will determine the roll out obligation for TOT to ensure that the spectrum is not underutilized.
Medium High 2016-2017
2500-2690MHzFully assigned to Military, Private Company, MCOT and The Government Public Relations Department
This is a potential band for IMT and NBTC plans to refarm the band and award the spectrum via an auction.

The availability of unlicensed spectrum is crucial for the operation of many different short-range devices. In Thailand, there are no unlicensed bands for radio communication but NBTC permits the use of short-range devices under the class license approach. These devices need to comply with NTC standards and operate below the maximum power stipulated.
