Dear readers,

Everywhere in Thailand you can buy lottery tickets on the street. I have often been tempted to buy one. How does the lottery system work?

  • how can you know if you have won;
  • how much does a lottery ticket cost;
  • what is the maximum or minimum to win?

Thanks in advance for any clarification.

Regards,

Patrick

    The Best

    As for buying lottery tickets,
    Better buy these at the market 80 baht, on state they ask 100 or more.
    You can win six million with a ticket with 10 of the same number, 60 million, they pay out small amounts personally with a 10% charge.

    But can I also find the result in a newspaper over the internet. I can go back to the seller, but if a big price or small price has fallen, I think it will not be told.

      Enter Thai lottery results + date into Google.
      After the draw you can also get a list of the winning numbers from sellers for 5 Baht I think.

      http://Www.glo.or.th. You can also just type in Thai lottery at Google. It's a state lottery, so it's safe. New lots every 2 weeks. You can enter the number of your lottery ticket on the site under search and immediately see if you have won anything. Unfortunately we have never won anything, but only do it during the holidays when we are there. 80 bathjes a lot on the street. On the beach they charge 100 baths. Good luck

      Op http://www.glo.or.th you can enter and check the lot number. And on, for example http://www.thailandinthenews.com see the full result. The results can also be found in the newspaper. Udon news, for example, has a clear webpage for this:
      http://www.udon-news.com/en/main/lotto-numbers-from-thailand
      Furthermore, a lottery seller sometimes also carries the result on a ticket.
      Why do you think a seller wouldn't tell you when you won a prize?
      You check it with him/her, a price will be paid after deduction of commission, for 'farangs' around 5%, but that can vary. For really big prizes you will have to go to the main office of the Thai lottery, but I assume you are happy to do so!

    The results are printed in every major newspaper.
    At most ticket sellers you can buy a result form for 5 bath.
    Mvg Dik.

  4. Ad Verhoeven says up

    The result will be published in the newspaper the next day.
    You must hand in 2% of the prize amount.

    We always watch this site https://lottery.kapook.com

    You can collect prizes at some lottery vendors, but also at many gold shops.
    With us, the commission is 3% for prices up to Thb 20.000 and above Thb 20.000 at 2%.

    You could also go to the head office yourself, I believe you will pay something like 0,25%.
    It doesn't pay off with small prizes, but you're lucky for once..........

  6. and that is says up

    For a year or so, that head office has been moved from formerly along the Ratchdamnern - almost next to that illustrious Khaosarn road (hence the huge numbers of lottery tickets sellers there) to a very remote new road in Nonthaburi, along the river and fairly close to the purple MRT - Nonthburi Govt.centre or something like that.
