Thailand’s Ministry of Digital Economy Shifts AI-Pass to .go.th Domain

According to a report by Matichon Online on August 21, 2026, Thailand’s Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (MDES) has announced a transition for its 'AI-Pass' platform. The service, which previously utilized a '.net' domain, will now operate under the '.go.th' domain extension.

This decision follows public criticism regarding the security and authenticity of the platform. The Ministry has acknowledged the oversight, with officials expressing regret for the initial choice of domain, admitting that the previous selection lacked sufficient consideration for the security standards expected of a government-backed digital service. By moving to the '.go.th' domain, the Ministry aims to align the platform with official government infrastructure, which is intended to provide users with greater assurance regarding the legitimacy of the site.

For residents and travelers in Thailand, this change is significant as it highlights the importance of verifying official government portals. Users interacting with digital services should ensure they are accessing platforms through verified government channels to protect their data. While the Ministry has committed to this migration to address security concerns, it remains to be confirmed how this transition will affect existing user accounts or if further security upgrades will be implemented for the platform in the near future.
