Use 003 for AIS 003 rates
On AIS, dial 003 before the country code to get the 003 international rates. Save the prefix in the phonebook so every call to that number uses it.
AIS, International Call - 003AIS 003 charges at least one minute
AIS 003 charges at least one minute for each international call from Thailand, regardless of destination. A short call costs the same as a one-minute call.
AIS, International Call - 003From any country, a call to India also fails when
