TrueMove H is a mobile telecommunication operator in Thailand. It is a subsidiary of True Corporation, making it the second largest operator in the country. TrueMove H was formed by Real Move Co., Ltd. and True Move H Universal Communication Co., Ltd., both subsidiaries of True Corporation. The company operates on 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz frequencies, granted by Thailand's National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission. The company's predecessor, TrueMove, began operating on a GSM 1800 MHz network until its license expired in 2013. TrueMove H's origins date back to 2000 when Charoen Pokphand (CP) acquired Wireless Communication Services Co., Ltd. (WCS). In 2001, WCS partnered with global telecom Orange and was renamed CP Orange. By 2002, the company was renamed TA Orange. In 2004, Orange sold its stake to TelecomAsia and the company was rebranded as TrueMove in 2006. True Corporation acquired Hutch and its subsidiary from CAT Telecom in 2010, leading to the creation of TrueMove H.
Most recently, in 2023, True Corporation merged with Total Access Communication (DTAC), retaining the True Corporation name. The merged company is listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand under the ticker symbol TRUE.
