2. The new phytosanitary number starts with TH with the 10-digit code number "THXXXXXXXXXX," which means:
2.1. TH means Thailand;
2.2. The first and second digits represent the year with the last two digits of the Buddhist Era;
2.3. The third and the fourth digits represent the months of the year;
2.4. The last six digits are the serial number of the Phytosanitary Certificate issued in order;
