Scenery of Thailand

The Kingdom of Thailand is located in the central part of the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia, with a population of about 70 million and a land area of approximately 510,000 km2 - about 1.4 times the size of Japan. Around 50,000 ATMs are in operation nationwide, of which about 10,000 are CRM*1s. In recent years, digital payment services such as QR code *2 payments and real-time transfers have been spreading.

  • CRM: Cash Recycling Machine (An ATM that accepts cash deposits and later dispenses the same notes for withdrawals)
  • QR Code is a registered trademark of DENSO WAVE.

In July 2025, Hitachi Channel Solutions (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (Hitachi Channel Solutions Thailand), the local subsidiary of Hitachi Channel Solutions Corp., celebrated its 10th anniversary. The company was established in July 2015 as Hitachi Terminal Solutions (Thailand) Co., Ltd. and began operations in October of the same year. As a key hub for the Thai and ASEAN markets, Hitachi Channel Solutions Thailand has made significant contributions to the development of financial infrastructure through the provision of ATMs and related services.
