Nation TV launched in 2000 as Nation Channel (Thai: เนชั่นแชนแนล) on UBC (now TrueVisions) platform on channel 8.
On 1 May 2003, Nation Channel exited UBC and moved to Tai TV (TTV) platform, broadcast via MMDS on channel 1.[1]
On 27 December 2013, NBC Next Vision won the auction for a digital news channel on channel number 22. On 17 March 2014, the channel name was changed to Nation TV (Thai: เนชั่นทีวี) and updated the logo to be more modern. On 1 April 2014, Nation TV started broadcast on digital terrestrial television via TV5 MUX5.
On 1 January 2015, Nation TV has changed its identity again. It's the letter N in a circle, floating above the letter Nation, which comes from its original identity, but remove the globe. It was also adjusting the aspect ratio to 16:9 like other digital TV stations, but in some cases, for example, the image in the transmission room is still in the same 4:3 aspect ratio until the transmission room of the station is moved to the transmission room at The Coast Lifestyle Mall, Bangna District, Bangkok (Currently discontinued broadcasting at The Coast Bangna and return the space to the operator for rent), as well as purchasing new equipment and broadcasting systems at the main transmission room of the Interlink Tower. Therefore, all Nation TV programs are broadcast in the aspect ratio of 16:9. Later, on January 9, 2020, Nation TV has changed its logo again for modernity with a separate beak added from the upper left corner of the letter N, similar to the number 1.
After NMG ownership changed, Nation TV is well-known for Far-Right[2] political coverage and frequently criticized opposition factions such as Future Forward Party.
On 10 November 2020, Nation TV announced a new direction for the station to return to neutral news reports, such as when the station started. After the news team with ideology about dictatorship politics gradually resigned from the station.[3]
