1. A method for handling a satellite communication in a wireless network, the method comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a non-access stratum (NAS) message including first information of a cause value indicating that a public land mobile network (PLMN) is not allowed to operate at a present UE location of the UE, and second information of a timer value related to the cause value;
storing, by the UE, a PLMN identifier (ID) of the PLMN, and a geographical location where the NAS message is received;
starting, by the UE, a timer with the timer value determined based on the second information; and
determining, by the UE that the UE is not allowed to attempt to access the PLMN via satellite access while the timer is running.
