How to Check Thai Lottery Results – Step by Step

The Thai Government Lottery (สลากกินแบ่งรัฐบาล) is one of the most widely followed lotteries in Southeast Asia. Draws happen twice a month — on the 1st and 16th of every month — and are managed by the Government Lottery Office (GLO). Each ticket carries a unique six-digit number, and prizes range from small fixed amounts up to the jackpot first prize of 6 million baht.

If you've just bought a ticket and want to know whether you've won, this guide walks you through the fastest and most reliable ways to check.

How to Check Your Thai Lottery Numbers Online

Follow these steps after every draw to verify your ticket:

Find the draw date printed on your ticket. Thai lottery tickets display the draw date clearly. Make sure you're checking the correct draw — results from a previous date won't apply to a ticket issued for a different one.
Go to the results page for that draw date. On doohuai.com, every draw has its own dedicated results page. For example, results for the 16 April 2026 draw are at /en/results/2026-04-16. You can browse all past draws through the results history.
Compare your six-digit number against the winning numbers. Start with the first prize, then work through the other prize tiers. An exact six-digit match wins the corresponding prize. Some lower tiers only require matching the last two or three digits, so check all categories before setting a ticket aside.
Use the instant number verification tool. The fastest method is to type your ticket number directly into the number verification tool on the homepage. It checks your number against every prize tier automatically and tells you immediately whether you've won — and if so, how much.

Understanding the Prize Tiers

Thai lottery tickets compete across several prize tiers in each draw:

First prize — exact six-digit match (6,000,000 THB)
Second prize — five winners, exact six-digit match (200,000 THB each)
Third prize — ten winners (80,000 THB each)
Fourth prize — fifty winners (40,000 THB each)
Fifth prize — one hundred winners (20,000 THB each)
Last three digits — two categories matching the final three digits (4,000 THB each)
Last two digits — matching the final two digits (2,000 THB)

There are also bonus prizes for tickets adjacent to the first-prize number. For a full breakdown of prize frequencies, payout rates, and historical winning patterns, see the statistics page.

When Are Results Published?

The GLO conducts the draw live on draw day. Results are typically announced between 2:30 PM and 4:00 PM Thailand time (UTC+7). Official winning numbers are published shortly after the draw concludes.

On doohuai.com, results are updated as soon as official GLO data is available — usually within minutes of the announcement. If you arrive before results are posted, refresh the page or check back after 4:00 PM Bangkok time.

How to Claim Your Prize

If your ticket is a winner, here is what you need to know before heading to a claim point:

Bring your original ticket and a valid ID. Thai nationals use a national ID card; foreign visitors use their passport.
Tax applies to prizes over 1,000 THB. The withholding tax rate is 0.5% — meaning 1 THB is deducted for every 200 THB won. This is handled automatically at the claim counter.
Claim within two years of the draw date. Prizes expire after two years and cannot be claimed after that deadline.
Claim locations vary by prize size. Smaller prizes can often be claimed at authorized retailers. Larger prizes require visiting a GLO regional office or the main office in Bangkok.

Keep your ticket safe and undamaged. Torn, altered, or illegible tickets may not be accepted.

Avoid Lottery Scams

Lottery scams in Thailand typically involve fake claim agents, counterfeit winning tickets, or messages telling you that you've won a prize you never entered. A few things to keep in mind:

You never need to pay money to claim a legitimate prize. If anyone asks for an upfront fee, transfer, or deposit to release your winnings, it is a scam.
Only trust official GLO data. Winning numbers published on doohuai.com are sourced directly from the Government Lottery Office. Do not rely on screenshots shared on social media, which can be manipulated.
Verify before you celebrate. Use the number verification tool to confirm a win against official results rather than trusting a third party who claims your ticket is a winner.

If something feels off, cross-reference with the GLO's own website or a trusted news outlet before taking any action.
