Thai Sim Card Not Registered - Does It Matter?

[ernst42]

Hi,

I bought a new 1-2-call SIM card today, and the shop did not require me to register with my passport etc.

Well I thought mai pen rai and just went home. the phone worked no problem.

But I am worrying now that AIS might turn that SIM card off if they don't get a registration form with that number.

Does anybody know what the procedure is?

Cheers, Ernie.

Canceled the registration process, so all of it was for naught in the end.

You will need to register it if you want your phone to work in the three southern most provinces. Anywhere else it is fine unregistered.
