A company can only register a single .co.th domain with the company name or initial name of company, and/or one .co.th domain name per trademark.[2]

In 2018, the foundation advance to the registration for authentic using of persons (natural persons and juristic persons); therefore, the foundation reserves the right to consider and decide the number of domain names of each person on a case-by-case basis.
