TIS 1099
Thai Industry Standard 1099-2548 (short TIS 1099) is a national standard assigning numerical codes to the administrative subdivisions of Thailand, published in 2005 by the Thai Industrial Standards Institute. History In 1992, a first version of the TIS 1099 standard (named TIS 1099-2535) was published, assigning codes to each of the then 72 provinces and the capital city of Bangkok. It followed a numbering scheme already used within the Ministry of Interior since the 1980s. The ISO standard 3199-2, first published in 1998, follows the codes of this standard. The draft version of ISO 3166 was based on the US standard FIPS 10-4, which assigns different numbers to the provinces. 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, ...
