What happened
ETDA released a new draft Act on Artificial Intelligence on July 2, 2026 for a public hearing of about 30 days. It creates three tiers (prohibited, high-risk by royal decree, designated systems) and, unusually, writes deployer duties into the law: a risk management system, capable oversight staff, operational logs kept six months, incident mitigation, and notification of unforeseen risks. Fines run THB 1 to 5 million with joint strict liability. Enactment timing is uncertain.
Who it applies to
Providers and deployers in Thailand.
