2. Thailand Air Defense Identification Zone (TADIZ)
2.1 The Thailand Air Defense Identification Zone (TADIZ) is hereby established to cover the airspace extending vertically from the surface of the land and sea areas of the Kingdom of Thailand, including the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the Gulf of Thailand and the EEZ in the Andaman Sea, as promulgated in the Royal Thai Government Gazette. The boundary of the TADIZ is defined by the successive connection of geographic coordinate points, based on the World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS-84) with reference to the Greenwich meridian, forming a continuous airspace boundary encompassing the territory of Thailand and its adjacent maritime areas. The sequence of geographic coordinates is established as follows: starting on the Thai border at 10°00'00" N, thence along the national border between the Kingdom of Thailand and the Republic of the Union of Myanmar, the Lao People's Democratic Republic, and the Kingdom of Cambodia to the coast

2.2 Since Bangkok Area Control Centre (VTBBZRZX) requires flight plans for all aircraft, IFR or VFR, operating into Bangkok FIR, it is compulsory that all aircraft, destined for an aerodrome within TADIZ or overflying TADIZ to submit flight plans at the point of departure for relaying to Bangkok Area Control Centre.
2.3 Aircraft flying along the airways shall report at the normal reporting points. Aircraft approaching TADIZ off airways shall report the estimated time over TADIZ boundary at least 10 minutes in advance.
2.4 If unable to establish and maintain radio communication with appropriate ATC agency, the pilot may contact the nearest Ground Control Intercept (GCI) frequency 127.0 and 331.3 MHz site for positive identification prior to entering TADIZ.
2.5 Aircraft will be intercepted by Royal Thai Air Force interceptors if:
They do not adhere to the Air Defense Identification Procedures or the Air Traffic Control Regulations and Procedures.
They deviate from their current flight plan, fail to passing over a point, or operate 10 NM over land or 20 NM over sea from the centre line of the airway assigned.
2.6 The aircraft which is intercepted by RTAF interceptors shall strictly comply with the interception procedure in accordance with Annex 2, Chapter 3 paragraph 3.8. The visual signal in accordance with Appendix 1 paragraph 2 will be used if direct communication between interceptors and intercepted aircraft can not be established. (see ENR 1.12-3).
2.7 Aircraft under interception will be attacked if they fail to obey any instructions given by RTAF interceptors.
2.8 The authority of the RTAF will not be responsible for any damage caused to aircraft by the interceptors of other devices.
