Thailand List of Controlled Military Material

1. Weapons, Ammunition, and Related Equipment. Including various weapons, ammunition, and explosives; combat vehicles and aircraft; military equipment; and nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) protective equipment. 2. Chemical Warfare Agents and Their Precursors. Strictly following the schedules annexed to the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), toxic chemicals and their key precursors are listed for control. Specifically, these include nerve agents (sarin, soman, VX), blister agents (mustard gas, nitrogen mustard, lewisite), biological toxins (ricin, saxitoxin), and key precursors (DF, QL, etc.). 3. Precursor Chemicals for Explosives Manufacturing. A total of 178 items. These cover strong oxidizers such as ammonium nitrate, potassium chlorate, and potassium perchlorate, as well as organic/inorganic chemicals including acetone, benzene, and guanidine nitrate, aimed at preventing their illegal use in explosives production. 4. Various Finished Explosives. Detailed listing of 55 specific high explosives, such as amatol, ammonium nitrate/fuel oil (ANFO), C-4 plastic explosive, RDX (cyclonite), HMX (octogen), PETN (pentaerythritol tetranitrate), TNT (trinitrotoluene), and their derivatives (nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin, lead azide, etc.). The ordering, importation, manufacture, and possession of these materials require a permit from the Ministry of Defence of Thailand, with exceptions for specific organizations such as Thai government agencies and the Red Cross. The list explicitly stipulates that substances with the same properties, chemical structure, or composition, even if under different names, are likewise deemed controlled items.
