Thai Lottery Results Today – Complete Guide
The Thai Government Lottery (GLO) is one of Asia's largest and longest-running state lotteries. Operated under the Ministry of Finance, it holds two official draws every month — on the 1st and the 16th — giving millions of participants across Thailand and abroad a regular chance to win. This guide covers everything you need: where to find the latest results, how to verify a ticket, what each prize tier pays out, and more.
Today's Thai Lottery Results
Results are published after each draw closes at 4 PM Thailand time (UTC+7). The quickest way to check is on the homepage, which always displays the most recent winning numbers the moment they go live.
You can also go directly to the result page for the most recent draw: April 16, 2026 results. Each result page lists every winning number across all prize categories, so you can scan the full draw in one place.
How to Verify Your Ticket Number
Holding a ticket and not sure if it won? The site includes an instant number verification tool on the homepage. Enter your ticket number and the tool checks it against the complete official results — including all prize tiers, not just first prize.
Verification is free and takes a few seconds. You do not need to cross-reference each prize category manually; the tool does that for you and shows the prize amount if there is a match.
Thai Lottery Prize Tiers
The Thai lottery has nine prize categories in each draw. The structure is designed so that more tickets win smaller amounts, while the top prizes go to exact six-digit matches.
| Prize | Description | Amount (THB) |
|---|---|---|
| First Prize | 6-digit match | 6,000,000 |
| Adjacent to First Prize | Numbers just above and below first prize | 100,000 |
| Second Prize | 5 winning numbers | 200,000 |
| Third Prize | 10 winning numbers | 80,000 |
| Fourth Prize | 50 winning numbers | 40,000 |
| Fifth Prize | 100 winning numbers | 20,000 |
| Last 3 Digits (front) | Match last 3 digits | 4,000 |
| Last 3 Digits (back) | Match last 3 digits | 4,000 |
| Last 2 Digits | Match last 2 digits | 2,000 |

Draw Schedule
Draws happen on the 1st and 16th of every month. If either date falls on a public holiday, the draw is typically moved to the next working day — though the GLO announces any schedule changes in advance.
Results are finalized and published by 4 PM Thailand time on the draw day. The site updates automatically; there is no need to refresh manually or wait for a separate announcement.
For a full calendar of upcoming draws and any confirmed schedule changes, see the lottery schedules page.
Historical Results Archive
The archive holds 62+ past draws, going back several years. You can browse results by date, search for a specific draw, or look up how often a particular number has appeared.
The historical results archive is useful if you want to track patterns over time or simply confirm a past result you missed.
Lottery Statistics
Beyond raw results, the site provides a statistics section that analyzes draw data across all recorded draws. You will find:
- Hot numbers — digits that have appeared most frequently in recent draws
- Cold numbers — digits that have not appeared in a while
- Overdue analysis — numbers statistically due based on historical frequency
These patterns do not predict future draws — the lottery uses certified random processes — but they are a useful reference for those who like to study the numbers before choosing a ticket. Explore the full lottery statistics dashboard.
How to Claim a Prize
To claim any prize, you need two things: the original winning ticket and a valid government-issued ID (Thai national ID or passport for foreign nationals). Photocopies are not accepted.
A withholding tax of 0.5% applies to all prizes. This is deducted at the point of payment, so you receive the net amount.
Prizes must be claimed within two years of the draw date. Claims are processed at Government Lottery Office locations throughout Thailand. For larger prizes, you may be directed to a regional GLO office rather than a local agent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Thai lottery legal? Yes. The Thai Government Lottery is operated by the Government Lottery Office, a state agency under the Ministry of Finance. It is fully legal and regulated. Purchasing tickets from unlicensed vendors or playing unofficial number games (often called the underground lottery) is separate and not covered here.
Can foreigners win? Yes. There is no citizenship requirement to win. Foreign nationals can claim prizes by presenting a valid passport at a GLO office. The same 0.5% withholding tax applies regardless of nationality.
How often are results updated on this site? Results are updated automatically after each draw. As soon as the official numbers are published by the GLO — typically by 4 PM on draw days — the site reflects the new results. You do not need to check back or refresh repeatedly; the homepage always shows the latest draw.
