A rule change which isn't confined to tourists, I think. According to the video you'll now need a Thai ID card (ie be a Thai citizen) in order to purchase the 199 THB SIM card from 7-11.

Anyone with brains just buys a ESIM data package online for as little as 4-5 dollars, no passport required at all. Most better deals will even cover entire SE asia + Australia at once. Speed also way better than tourist sims.

 

That's how pathetic this entire measurement is to track tourists and sim cards.

Many phones still don't accept e=SIMs - you still need you buy local packages.
