Additionally to the codes for the province and Bangkok, the ISO standard adds a special code for the special administrative area Pattaya, a code not present in the Thai standard. In 2005, the current version of the standard was published, introducing the codes for Amnat Charoen, Nong Bua Lam Phu and Sa Kaeo, ...
