AGR-397 · Physical commodity exchange · Hat Yai — Kho Hong, Thailand · THB
Songkhla Central Rubber Market is a physical rubber marketplace associated with the Rubber Authority of Thailand system. It is located in Kho Hong, Hat Yai, within Songkhla Province. The province name in the institution's title should not automatically place it in Songkhla city. The market is relevant to rubber-sheet suppliers and professional purchasers because it provides an organised reception and trading setting. RAOT's service guide describes procedures relating to membership and the notification of incoming goods.
In the inspected price table, the Songkhla column for non-baled RSS3 in the source's Non EUDR category shows THB 87.39/kg on 29 October and THB 87.10/kg on 30 October 2026. These are two daily observations of the same category. They do not price every type of rubber or represent a futures contract. The reporting system also contains other locations, so aggregate totals across markets have not been assigned to Songkhla alone. Keeping the location and product category attached to each number is essential.
The public reporting service displays market data, but ownership of its domain was not independently confirmed. The directory therefore distinguishes the market's identification in RAOT material from the channel used to obtain the numerical observations. Non EUDR is retained as a source label without drawing conclusions about whether a particular shipment meets current legal requirements. An actual transaction still needs an agreed lot specification and the documentation appropriate to the intended trade.
Suppliers should establish registration, reception timing, quality category and weighing arrangements in advance. The RAOT guidance relates delivery notification to product type, quality and estimated weight. Buyers are advised to match their required material to the precise quotation description: RSS3 in a specified presentation is not a substitute for any rubber raw material. An enquiry should state quantity, packaging, collection location and how lot conformity will be assessed. Procurement activity at this market is also corroborated by an announcement from industrial buyer Sri Trang.
For an overseas counterparty, the practical task is to distinguish the local product price from preparation and shipping costs. Agree the settlement currency, chargeable weight, payment timing and responsibility for collection. Do not assume that a published table includes export handling, packing or movement to a port. Without those fields, apparently similar quotations may describe different goods or delivery conditions and therefore support misleading conclusions about price differences.
