The letters track the key word of each category: ก for the consular corps (กงสุล), พ for an embassy's special agencies (พิเศษ), อ for international organisations (องค์การ). The numerals beneath code the sending country — a list the DLT has never published.

| Code | Stands for | English |
|---|---|---|
| `ก` | คณะผู้แทนทางกงสุล | consular corps |
| `พ` | หน่วยงานพิเศษของสถานทูต | special agency of an embassy |
| `อ` | องค์การระหว่างประเทศหรือทบวงการชำนัญพิเศษแห่งสหประชาชาติ | international organisation or UN specialised agency |
